Title:
  Mouse cursor teleports between two different locations

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Using newest Quantal the mouse cursor started behaving strangely. When
  I move the mouse, the cursor jumps back and forth between two
  locations, which can up to a centimeter apart. Both cursor locations
  move according to mouse motion.

  If I push the cursors to the top left corner, they overlap. However in
  use they start to slowly drift apart again.

  This is not a rendering bug. The cursor actually moves. This can be
  verified like this:

  Suppose the two mouse locations are A and B and there are application
  two buttons called 1 and 2. These buttons are separate, they have some
  space (or another widget) between them. Then one moves the cursor so
  location A is over button 1 and location B is over button 2. Moving
  the mouse even a tiny distance makes the cursor jump between these two
  locations randomly. When location A is active, pressing the mouse
  button activates button 1. Correspondingly location B activates button
  2.
