Strange. When I tested this there was definitely a cursor visible, the default UI options force this to be true. We'll double check this and see if we can reproduce the problem.
Unable to reproduce this on builds out of master. Will try the images.
This works for me with the pre-built images, the issue is actually in the launching of qemu. Can we get this re-tested and confirm if e0194e3c9189bd5ab4d380bfe42c0d65bb1b3928 is present in that tree that does the test ?
Yes, the issue is in the launching of qemu, I got this from Liming Wang. The key problem is --show-cursor, the old version of poky-qemu script didn't use this argument, and the latest commit including it, so when I run "git pull" to update my poky source tree to the latest version, the cursor is ok.
already fixed
