Now it's all systems go. I will wait until the issue recurs and then post the x11 log. Thanks for helping 😄 .

I'm experiencing cursor blinking slowly after running unclutter.
You mean it appears and disappears all the time? Even while you keep moving the mouse? What about if you don't move it?
How can I debug this?
You can run it under xtrace and get that logfile.
unclutter --timeout 1.5
Note that the timeout argument is an integer, so this should either be 1 or 2.

No, it blinks only when I don't move it, and this issue isn't always reproducible.
I tried xtrace unclutter --timeout 2. Nothing came out.

I tried xtrace unclutter --timeout 2. Nothing came out.
Note that on Arch it's called x11trace. It does print (a lot of) stuff for me, so I suspect you were using the wrong tool.
Even without it, my guess would be that what you are looking for is the "jitter" option in the original unclutter which ignores pointer movements that are "too small". Let's verify this, though. (This is not yet implemented in unclutter-xfixes)

Ok. I will start using the original unclutter with "jitter" option enabled for a day or two to see if this issue goes away.
And for the x11trace, I couldn't find it even in AUR.

I'd appreciate if we could instead get the log file so we can see whether that's the issue. It'd help in deciding how to proceed here.

Yeah, that would be the right thing to do if I can get the X trace stuff working :-). I've updated my last comment.

@amosbird In the AUR it's xtrace-git, but the binary provided by it is called x11trace.

@amosbird Once you have that, you can also try out the pull request I've opened and launch unclutter --timeout 2 --jitter 25 (or some other value).

Yeah, that looks like jitter. Let's see if the new option helps.
