[Bug 1390625] Re: mouse cursor gets corrupted

 

I'm facing the same problem ... It seems only drag-mouse-cursor is
affected.

Changing resolution as suggested above doesn't work for working with
gmaps. The cursor is always corrupted ...

First time it happened was after inserting two Radeon HD5450 graphics
adapters and xrandr-ing resolutions for a three monitor setup.

I also tried to change the mouse-cursor theme but it didn't help ...

Title:
  mouse cursor gets corrupted

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 14.10, the mouse cursor graphic gets corrupted under certain
  occasions. It then looks flipped, sheared or shows fragments of a
  previous cursor.

  * when switching the cursor them forth and back in Gnome Tweak Tool
  * when drag&dropping a document icon

  Maybe related, the cursor does not always show the correct image scale
  on a high-dpi display (this was working right in 14.04). For example
  after login, or when hovering specific areas, or on mouse down to
  start a drag&drop, the cursor appears 1/4 the expected size.

  Attached is a photo of a corrupted cursor (whereas a screenshot with
  Gimp showed the uncorrupted cursor).
