Asked by Charles Mitchell

When hovering mouse over applications, places, or system, on top panel, when the pop up description appears the mouse pointer disappears. If I touch the touchpad, the pointer reappears. Also, when computer boots to desktop the mouse pointer is not shown. again if I touch the touchpad the mouse pointer appears in center of screen. using ubuntu 11.04. This does not happen with ubuntu 10.10. laptop is a gateway 3550GZ. mouse and keyboard preferences are set the same in both instances of ubuntu. Using classic desktop. this computer hardware is not sufficient for Unity.
