[Bug 163047] Re: firefox: mouse pointer disappears while page is loading

[Mike.lifeguard]

This appears to be a bug in the way compiz handles keeping the size of
animated cursors constant with enhanced zoom. It shrinks your real
cursor down to nothing and draws a new cursor... when you zoom back out,
it fails to resize the original cursor, but stops drawing the new one
(since it's not needed unless you're zoomed). Thus after zooming out
your cursor disappears.

See for example
