After I made the wifi working on the HP Pavilion dv2000, I saw that everytime I was logging off a user, and reconnected with an other one, the mouse cursor was disapearing.

To resolve this problem, it’s very easy

First: You have to make a backup

sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
(to restore it do: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf)

Then, open xorg.conf

gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

In the: nvidia Device Section add the line:
Option "HWCursor" "off"

Save
Restart GDM (CTRL+ALT+Backspace)

And voila!!
Try it by logging-off and logging-in
