<a target="_blank" href="https://wiki.debian.org/unclutter">Unclutter</a> its a program which helps you hide the cursor after a set time of no mouse activity.
This time amount can be configured on your system by editing this file:
<pre><code class="lang-sh">/etc/default/unclutter
</code></pre>
and changing the line:
<pre><code class="lang-sh">EXTRA_OPTS="-idle 1 -root"
</code></pre>
to a higher number, like 5 or 6:
<pre><code class="lang-sh">EXTRA_OPTS="-idle 6 -root"
</code></pre>
This will make Unclutter wait for 6 seconds before hiding the cursor from view.
