This doesn't appear to be a video driver problem because I
have a perfectly wonderful mouse pointer on the login screen,
it only disappears after I login :-).

I did some google searches and found this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=969649

then later found a solution I added in comment 30
in that bug:

Use dconf to turn off the "cursor" plugin in
gnome-settings-demon. Why the exact same setup
doesn't have the problem in f19, I don't know,
but f19 still works fine if I turn off that
plugin, so I have it disabled now :-).
