No Pointer After Upgrading To 10.04

[SteveDee]

I've just upgraded a Compaq D510 from 9.10 to 10.04.

During upgrade I got a message:-


Missing Resources.
The NetworkManager Applet could not find some required resources.
It cannot continue.

However it did continue, and the system seems to work OK except the mouse pointer is invisible.

I can use <ctrl> to highlight where it is, and I can click on menus and run apps.

If I VNC in from another machine I can see the mouse pointer on the remote screen.

With at least one Theme/Icon/Pointer configuration combination I can get the pointer to appear after boot, but only by launching either Firefox or Gimp.

Your suggestions ladies & gentlemen please.

Booting from 2.6.31-20 instead of 2.6.32-22 solves my problem.

I had the same issue after either Upgrading to 10.04 or doing a fresh install. After installation, I installed the Nvidia driver (96 in my case) and the pointer again became Visible. Interestingly enough, I installed the first beta release of 10.10 and the pointer was there from the start.
NOTE: After updating 10.10, the pointer had disappeared and I to install Nvidia 96 form Hardware Drivers.

NOW, I cannot get to desktop :confused:
