Cursor freezes/disappears often. Mint 20.1
by mogmog from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6MSHE)
Hello, my system has been fine for a long time. Recently, the mouse cursor freezes or sometimes it disappears.
It's getting almost unusable at times, then calms down a bit perhaps. I haven't been able to trigger it deliberately or notice any trigger activity.
I've had a bit of a search on here & generally, but nothing seems to fit.
Any idea what I can start to look at?
Many thanks
