In case it helps narrow things...

I just did a fresh install of Kubuntu 10.10 and I'm seeing this issue now. This did not occur, for me, on Kubuntu 10.04, using drivers downloaded from nVidia.

I'm running a dual-display setup. The problem only occurs on my left screen (screen 1). The right display is fine. That is, the mouse will show on the right screen, but disappears when I move across to the left.

Opening a terminal and performing the steps previously mentioned does not fix the problem. I haven't tried console switching, yet.

Some info:
Linux hostname 2.6.35-22-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Sun Oct 10 09:26:05 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce 9500 GT] (rev a1)

A number of xorg packages were installed, by default. I can post them (or other logs) if anyone thinks it's of interest -- otherwise, it's purely a stock Kubuntu 10.10 install.
