Invisible mouse pointer with AMD eGPU on 23.10
I am using an Intel NUC12WSK and an AMD 6800XT card in a Razer Core X eGPU housing connected via thunderbolt.
This has been working fine with Ubuntu 23.04, both with and without the external GPU. I have just upgraded to 23.10 by doing a clean install (the upgrade method failed due to some packages I couldn't identify).
Everything is fine without the eGPU - the desktop functions perfectly using the integrated graphics; When I connect the eGPU, everything is almost fine. The GPU is identified, and is active when DRI_PRIME=1 - the only thing is that there is no mouse pointer visible in the desktop or games. The mouse functions fine (and I can use the left-Ctrl to locate the pointer, which moves around the screen and selects things as normal). But I have not found a way to make the pointer visible.
One last note: the connection to the monitor is HDMI from the graphics card output (because the GPU is not recognised when I plug the HDMI into the output on the base machine).
Any help would be much appreciated!
