Created attachment 39474 [details] Small reproducer that hides the cursor, waits 60 seconds, then exits. If you hide the cursor with XFixes, then switch to a virtual console, then switch back to the X session, the cursor is visible again. To reproduce the issue, compile the attached source file with: gcc -g -Wall -o xfixes-vc-bug xfixes-vc-bug.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs x11 xfixes` then run the binary: ./xfixes-vc-bug Confirm that the cursor disappears. Then within 30 seconds switch to a virtual console then back to the X session. Note that the cursor is visible again even though the binary that hid the cursor using XFixes is still running.
