I have created a new install of FreeBSD 13 in Vmware Fusion on my Macbook Pro. After finally getting everything sorted out, everything is good and KDE Plasma is working.
So I decided I would like nicer consoles, so I added vbe_max_resolution="1920x1200" to my /boot/loader.conf and it does exactly what I was wanting. But now I have a mouse issue.
When I switch back to KDE (ctrl+alt+F9) from any console (ctrl+alt+F1-8), the mouse cursor is gone. If I wait for the screen to lock, or lock it with ctrl+alt+L, the cursor immediately comes back and starts working again.
Also, when the cursor is missing, if I 3-finger swipe back to my MacOS screen from the cursorless KDE screen, the MacOS cursor is in the bottom right corner of the screen. If I 3-finger swipe back to the MacOS screen from the virtual console, the MacOS cursor is in the upper left corner of the screen. If I do NOT switch to any virtual console everything works as expected and the mouse cursor stays in the same exact location when I 3-finger swipe between the desktops.
This issue didn't start until I changed the console resolution to 1920 x 1200, so I'm thinking that has to be the cause of the problem, but I have no idea what to do to try to fix it.
I would really like to keep the console resolution at 1920 x 1200. Any ideas?
