I had the same behavior on my wetab. For the first time the cursor was show, 
when booting. I am not shure, if i enabled it in the Developer-Settings.

I reinstalled the devel-iso 13-01-2013, booted, installed the media-center and 
dolphin, enabled the integration-repo and did zypper ref and up. All went well 
and now akonadi is working again. In the evening, I did another zypper up, no 
problems. 
BTW there are allways about 180 packages which are updated, is this o.k.?

Would there have been a way without reinstalling PA?
