No visible mouse pointer

[Paolo Galtieri]

I have successfully upgraded one system to F31, however, it still 
exhibits the same problem it has had under F30, namely no visible mouse 
pointer.  The mouse does work since I have configured my MATE desktop to 
display the mouse pointer location when I press the ctrl key.  This only 
works once I am logged in, until then I have to move the mouse until I 
see something change to know where the mouse is.  Does anyone have a 
solution to this problem?

Paolo,

I have had this problem, with one old Thinkpad, but only after wakeup from hibernate.
Another student has reported the same problem on a Dell laptop.

What works for me is to click on the right mouse button (I use openbox WM) and then the
pointer works. 

I have not this issue with two other laptops and one desktop workstation (all Dells).

HTH, but it would be nice to get this resolved more holistically.

Ranjan,
   what's interesting about this problem is that it only happens on a new Dell server
system.  Everything used to work just fine until some update introduced the problem.  I
have a Dell laptop running F30 and I don't see the problem on that system.
