This error in dmesg appears pertinent:

[101728.482742] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: no space while unhiding
cursor


** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  Over time, my mouse pointer becomes more and more erratic and
  unresponsive.  It never becomes unusable, but it gets jerky and hard to
  use.  If I run 'top', I can watch Xorg CPU usage spike in direct
  correlation to how much I move the mouse around (and the mouse
  performance gets worse while I'm doing this).  If I wave the mouse
  pointer around a lot, CPU will reliably hit 100%, and the pointer will
  be far behind my physical gestures with the mouse (and will continue to
  move for a while after I stop moving the mouse).  CPU climbs back down
  after I stop moving the mouse.
  
  When I first log in, everything is fine.  This problem gets worse the
  longer I stay in the same X Session.  I haven't tried logging out back
  to GDM and logging back in; if you need me to I can try that.
  
  Switching between windows / desktops is also increasingly sluggish.
  
  This is all on  Ubuntu lucid (development branch).
  
  I don't know if this is related to any of these bugs:
