[Bug 583760] Re: Mouse cursor dissappears with nouveau

 

I get this problem on a regular basis.  Several times a day.  It
requires a full reboot to reset.

I am running 10.10 on a Thinkpad T410 with an external monitor.  The
mouse cursor disappears from the built-in display on the laptop but
continues to appear on the external monitor.  The mouse does, in fact,
work on the built-in display but is invisible.

there is nothing abnormal in the Xorg.0.oog, but dmesg always has the
following.

[ 8319.721137] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: EvoCh 0 Mthd 0x0000 Data 0x00000400 (0x0002 0x01)
[ 8607.947182] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: no space while hiding cursor
[ 8608.059054] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: no space while hiding cursor
[ 8611.209928] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: no space while hiding cursor
(this last line is repeated zillions of times).

This bug has also been reported in Fedora
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=537065>.  That bug has a
workaround kernel patch included
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=457771&action=diff>.
