Severity: important
The latest update to debian squeeze seems to have introduced the Bug reported here http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=550942 .
(Upstream bug report can be found here https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29413 .),
i.e. after boot-up the mouse pointer is invisible (though otherwise fully functional).
As described in the upstream bug report going through a hibernate or a suspend cycle makes the mouse pointer reappear.
Apparently the fix for this problem that the upstream bug links to was not included in the latest squeeze update.
I got a similar problem after installing
debian-6.0.1a-i386-businesscard.iso
I can't reproduce the suspend-step because the display stays dark when
resuming.
