Hello All,
I have searched a great deal and cannot seem to find the specific answer I am looking for. I am wondering is there is a way to use a screensaver with Ubuntu GNOME that allows me to use my revised keyboard shortcut of Super+L that will hide the mouse cursor. Apparently the mouse cursor disappears when I first apply Super+L to lock the screen but when the actual screensaver kicks in it pops the mouse cursor on and keeps the screen blank. I am thankful that at least it is not turning the monitor off the way it does without Xscreensaver running but I would like the mouse cursor to stay hidden while the system is locked and the blank screensaver is running. I know this may seem petty but I am curious if anyone knew of an answer. Thank you.
