Invisible Mouse Cursor on startup on 14.04 [SOLVED]

Question

My mouse cursor won't appear on startup unless I restart lightdm. But when I reboot cursor doesn't appear.

I tried the setting below:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.cursor active false

then tried reinstalling the lightdm and also changing cursor-theme.

I also tried installing Nvidia drivers from Additional drivers but it causes booting to black screen.

Answer 1

Your Nvidia drivers should be fixed first. Follow this guide, while you boot your system with nomodeset kernel option.

If you will still have problems with the cursor, feel free reporting back!
