    Mouse Pointer doesn't show

    I am running ubuntu 13.10 on a dual boot system with windows 8. Sometimes when I start-up ubuntu the mouse pointer does
    not show and I need to reboot the system, which usually fixes the problem.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    This is a reported bug in Ubuntu 13.10, see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...n/+bug/1238410

    To solve this try to disable the gnome-settings-daemon cursor plugin from Terminal:

    Code:
    gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.cursor active false
    and re-enable it:

    Code:
    gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.cursor active true
    I am not running Ubuntu 13.10 right now, so report here if it works, or if you get any error/messages.
