I use Awesome WM on Fedora 23. When I enter text in Firefox or gVim the mouse cursor stays visible. When entering text in Konsole or Dolphin, the cursor is hidden until I move it again.
The KDE behavior is much more what I want. How can I change this in GTK applications?

There is program called
unclutter
which hides mouse pointer while not in use. To install it on fedora (if haven't already):And then start it with
-idle
option to set number of seconds before pointer will be hidden, e.g.:You may want to add above line to
.xinitrc
or similar startup file.
