Hi,

I just installed f7 on a new box. Once the machine is up and running the
mouse pointer disappears. The mouse is working because if I move it
carefully I can use it to navigate the menus at the top of the screen. I was
able to turn on the option to highlight the mouse when the ctrl key is pressed
which allows me to kind of operate the machine.

I have installed all of the updates but I cannot figure out how to get the
mouse pointer to show up. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this.

I am not running any of the nVidia propriatory modules and I would like to
avoid that if possible.


Sounds like:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3009

Solution:
Disable HWCursor in Xorg.

Example: /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Section "Device"
       Identifier  "Videocard0"
       Driver      "nv"
       Option      "HWCursor" "off"
EndSection

Hope this helps.
