CowboyRedBeard Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I saw one other thread from some time ago suggesting this was a Chrome problem, but I get it in IE also. Am I just doing something wrong here, or do you guys have an issue seeing the mouse in the "VNC Remote"? Mine is a linux VM, if that matters (I don't have any Windows VMs so can't say if it is the same). Quote Link to comment
CowboyRedBeard Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Nobody else having this issue? I do have it from multiple workstations too... Quote Link to comment
statecowboy Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I noticed it on chrome. I switched to using splashtop and it's been a much better experience. Quote Link to comment

ugp Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I just started getting this issue today. Using Edge, Chrome, Firefox, and IE. Using RDC though it does work. I can still move around just cannot see the pointer. When I go to devices I see the mouse as a 'Tablet'. I believe it believe I have a touch screen. Quote Link to comment
Daylend Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I'm having this issue as well using noVNC on Chrome and Firefox in all VMs. Edge doesn't even load strangely. Glad to see I'm not the only one. Quote Link to comment
j1philli Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Has anyone found a fix for this yet? I just upgraded my rig so I could use vms and it is so painful without a pointer Quote Link to comment
brainbone Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I haven't found a fix, but it looks like Unraid needs to update the noVnc they're using: https://github.com/novnc/noVNC/pull/1119 Quote Link to comment
minion1066 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Anyone know if noVNC has been updated? Quote Link to comment
KermitJr Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Not sure, but I know I have no mouse cursor. Unraid 6.7.2 new VM with win10 1 Quote Link to comment
all3g0ry Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) I found a small workaround with my Kali VM in Firefox. 1: Open the VNC remote. It opens in a new window. At this point I have no cursor. 2: Close this window. 3: Use the shortcut CTRL+SHIFT+N to restore to previously closed window. The cursor appear! The laptop I'm using has touchscreen. On other computers the VM does not have this issue. Hope it can help someone... Edited October 23, 2019 by all3g0ry Quote Link to comment
