Package: kde-plasma-desktop
Version: 5:77+deb7u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The mouse cursor sometimes disappears. It reappears when it is moved.

It can be reproduced by moving the cursor slowly from below into a tab on an
application such as konqueror.  The cursor may disappear as it enters the tab;
if it doesn't, continue to move it through the tab; it may disappear as the
cursor tip moves out the top of the tab. It most often happens if you move it
through the "X" at the right side of the tab.

The cursor remains invisible until you move it again.

It is most pronounced on google chrome tabs: it happens almost every time.

It is sufficiently annoying that it makes the application unpleasant to use.
The
cursor keeps flashing as I move it across the tabs, and it often remains
invisible until I move it again.

I have just installed debian/wheezy on this computer, and it has been
happening right from the start.

I tried creating a new user, without modifying desktop effects or themes or
anything else. The cursor still disappears.

Computer is HP Pavilion 500-005a.

AMD Radeon HD 8570D Integrated Graphics.

firmware-linux-nonfree is installed, because a boot-time message said radeon
requires it.

I have found similar problems reported in various debian and non-debian
forums, mostly about 18 months old, but none has reported a satisfactory
solution.
