If you are using a touchscreen you would, probably, like to hide the mouse cursor. It's possible to hide the cursor after a small delay or to hide it completly

Hide mouse after a delay

install unclutter

apt-get install unclutter

edit X11 configruation file found in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc and add the following line at the bottom

unclutter -idle 0.01 -root

where 0.01 is the time in seconds the cursor should be visible

Hide mouse completely

Edit this file /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/*.conf by adding

xserver-command=X -nocursor

to the end of the file.

Reboot and cursor should not appear.
