Latest (3/20/2021) Fedora 33 update messed up the cursor
 
Update this morning (Pacific Time) scrambled the cursor.

Is it Wayland or X11?

Try another cursor theme (Appearance>Cursor in gnome-tweaks).

Also, please provide the output of

I forgot to say changing the cursor theme in gnome-tweaks made on difference...

ezrider 03-20-2021 05:17 PM

I meant NO difference...

hupiper 03-21-2021 12:07 AM

I have the same problem. I installed Fedora 33 workstation from scratch and the cursor was fine. I apply the update and the cursor is awful. Doesn't matter what theme is being used.

GeorgiaRebel 03-22-2021 04:28 PM

I am seeing similar behavior in Fedora 32 since I updated last night

shruggy 03-22-2021 04:42 PM

Could it be rhbz#1806179?

GeorgiaRebel 03-23-2021 12:32 PM

Could be shruggy, but I am using Intel and nvidia drivers

shruggy 03-23-2021 01:29 PM

Does disabling Wayland as described in the bug comments help?

Oh, if that's Intel, a recent linux-firmware update on Fedora included security fixes for Intel Graphics Drivers. CVE-2020-12362, CVE-2020-12363, CVE-2020-12364.

GeorgiaRebel 03-23-2021 08:36 PM

I have the latest linux-firmware update for the Intel graphics and disabled Wayland some time ago.

mrmazda 03-26-2021 01:24 AM

Maybe https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1941291 or related to it?

shruggy 03-26-2021 02:54 AM

^Easy to test: just reboot into the older kernel.

GeorgiaRebel 03-27-2021 09:36 AM

I have been rebooting into the Kernel Linux 5.10.22-100.fc32.x86_64 x86_64 about a day after this cursor issue was discovered. That resolves the issue until the 11.9 kernel is released in the stable repos

ezrider 03-28-2021 12:16 PM

Yesterday's F33 update fixed it...
 
Yesterdays update fixed it (regular cursor is back)...
