      Hi Guys,

      Any suggestions to make the mouse cursor invisible on reboot?

      I’ve changed all my LXDE settings, meaning when i move the mouse it disappears.

      But when my mirror reboots and there is no mouse movement the cursor sits there right in the middle until I plug in a mouse and move it, then it goes?

      Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

      Ollie

        @olliewarren411 you sure you have
        "@xset s off
        @xset -dpms
        @xset s noblank
        "
        in /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi ? Mine works just fine with those values

          Thanks for your reply. I do have the LXDE-pi/autostart set correctly as you say as well as the LXDE/autostart.

          The mouse cursor does disappear but only when you try and move it.

            @olliewarren411 Okey. Well it was long ago I did install my rasp. so I’ve might forgot how I did it. But do you have “unclutter” installed?
