This bug also affects the Nautilus file manager (and Image Viewer,
Fotoxx, more).

Click and drag any image icon. Presto! Your mouse cursor is changed into
a smaller version of that icon, with an arrow in its upper left and a
second arrow in its upper right. This is nice while you're dragging.
But, and this is the new probem, you then remain stuck with that weird,
wrong mouse cursor until you log out of the session or shut down!

This wrong behavior seems restricted to Ubuntu 14.10; 14.04 remains
okay. (I use 64-bit Ubuntu Desktop on various PC computers.)

Title:
  Double Mouse Cursor

Status in xinput package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When dragging with the mouse cursor often it creates a double cursor
  side by side about 10 cm apart on the screen.  Only one cursor works.
  Using print screen does not show the cursor in the resulting image.
  Rebooting corrects the problem.

  This is similar to the double mouse cursor reported as a result of
  flash in a browser, however the current problem will occur without the
  browser open.
