Vanishing mouse cursor


I have Manjaro Xfce and I am experiencing the vanishing mouse cursor syndrome. The mouse cursor sometimes vanishes for a second and comes back. Other times it will vanish permanently. Only a reboot can get it back. I can't make this problem occur. It just happens every not so often. I would like to do some detective work finding what could be causing this. Does Manjaro have an event log like Windows does? If it has, where is it hiding?

Try this link. It's originally for Arch Linux, but it may help in your situation...

Thanks, I have Xfce not Gnome. Would this apply to Xfce as-well?
