Mouse disappears after coming back from sleep mode

[kaitos]

Since updating to Lucid, my mouse pointer disappears whenever I awaken my computer from sleep mode. It still works, as things will react to my mouse input (raise on mouseover, mouse clicks and such). Sometimes switching the virtual desktop will work, sometimes I have to switch it multiple times, and other times after a few minutes of trying I have to give up and log out, and log back in.

I'm on a Dell Inspiron 1526, if that helps. Anyone else experiencing something like this/any fixes?

Since updating to Jaunty,

Jaunty? Is that correct? You posted in a Lucid board.

Nope! Thanks for catching that. I upgraded to Lucid, from Karmic. I don't know where Jaunty came from

What do you mean by "sleep mode"? Suspend to Disk / Ram?

Suspend to ram, yes. I haven't tested it when suspending to disk.

So just the visual component of the cursor is missing. Interesting.

Re: Mouse disappears after coming back from sleep mode

I have exactly same issue on my laptop. Hibernate didn't work in Kubuntu 9.10 at all. In Kubuntu 10.04 (upgrade from 9.10) it works but mouse cursor disappears always. I have ASUS F5VL with ATI Radeon X2300.
Thanks for help.

Are you using the open source ATI driver? That might be a starting point if were both using it.

No, I am not linux expert, but I guess that ATI drivers support only Radeon X2400 or lates. I have X2300. I am using original drivers from Kubuntu.

Re: Mouse disappears after coming back from sleep mode

I also have this issue, haven't yet figured out a solution. Dell Inspiron E1705 with ATI x1400 video card. I haven't tried to suspend to disk yet but every time I suspend to RAM it won't come back. (with a lid close at least, if I do in manual and at least bring it right back up problem doesn't seem to happen) Running Kununtu 10.04 Lucid Lynx

Re: Mouse disappears after coming back from sleep mode

Same problem here.
I have one HP Pavilion DV7-1010EP with ATI Radeon HD3400 and I upgraded to Lucid 10.4/64 and first to KDE 4.4 (now I upgraded to 4.5 RC2) and I have this problem when suspend to Ram or Disk. When start again the mouse cursor is not visible. But it work if you use right bottom. I have to lock the screen and when ask to unlock to the cursor is visible again.

Is possible someone help me to this annoying bug?

Thanks
Paulo

Hi, I'm new to this forum, switching from gnome to kde. Anyway, this seems to fix the mouse pointer issue:

I am running 10.04 32 bit, so it's not a 64 bit thing.
