Good evening,

just experienced a funny bug (?):

When I switch to tty terminal, my mouse pointer still appears, but is in the center of the screen. When I switch back into graphical mode, the pointer is on the same position as when I switched to terminal mode.

Course, this is not sore, but it's strange!

Did someone experienced it before? I do just after the latest updates…

Does anyone know against which package to file a bug in Launchpad?

Thanks ;)

System spec:

  • Kernel

    Linux 3.8.0-27-generic x86_64

  • Graphic card: 

    VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS780M [Mobility Radeon

    HD 3200] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])

  • Driver (output of lspci -nnk | grep -A3 AMD):

    01:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS780M [Mobility Radeon HD 3200] [1002:9612]
Subsystem: Toshiba America Info Systems Device [1179:ffb0]
Kernel driver in use: radeon

  • What graphics card and kernel are you using? I guess this has to do with kernel mode setting and the cursor interaction with the driver. By the way, it's also possible to use the mouse pointer in a TTY: [How can I use the mouse in a virtual terminal?](http://askubuntu.com/q/245948/88802) – gertvdijk Aug 17 '13 at 21:20
  • My kernel: `Linux 3.8.0-27-generic x86_64` ; My graphic card: `VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS780M [Mobility Radeon HD 3200] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])` – IndexOutOfBoundsException Aug 18 '13 at 09:01
  • Please **edit** your question to include more details - it is how this site works. Please also include the output of `lspci -nnk | grep -A3 AMD` to include which driver you're on. – gertvdijk Aug 18 '13 at 12:09
  • I did it and added the spec… – IndexOutOfBoundsException Aug 18 '13 at 12:27

I'd say, file a bug against xserver-xorg-video-radeon in Launchpad.
