           Summary: [R300] [KMS] Mouse becomes invisible after mode switch
           Product: xorg
           Version: 7.5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: regression
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org

Immediately after successfully booting up my computer and logging in in GDM,
everything works OK. However, if I switch display modes, mouse cursor becomes
invisible. Things still get highlighted when I move mouse cursor over them, but
the cursor itself is nowhere to be seen.

Cursor becomes visible again if I do one of the following things:
1) Switch VT to console and back to X.
2) Press CTRL+C on any terminal window.
3) Switch to root user (i.e. "su -") on any terminal window.

Workaround: Disable KMS.

Other possibly useful information:

No xorg.conf-file.
