Hi again,

I have created the bug report

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1572640

When installed from the *Lubuntu alternate* ISO files, the default 
systems are affected by this bug:

After time-out the screensaver kicks in and the user is locked out. At 
the unlock screen the cursor is visible, but after unlock the cursor is 
invisible. This bug does not affect the corresponding desktop ISO files, 
neither the live session nor the default installed systems.

ISO files: The Lubuntu Xenial final version dated 20160419

xenial-alternate-i386.iso
xenial-desktop-i386.iso
xenial-alternate-amd64.iso
xenial-desktop-amd64.iso

The cursor appears again after logout and stays after login.

This bug is similar to or the same as Bug #1568604: Mouse cursor lost 
when unlocking.

Please check if it affects you too, and in that case mark 'affects me 
too' to confirm the bug (for Lubuntu Xenial Alternate (i386 and amd64)).

Best regards
Nio
