Comment #11 is about my current installation comment #13 is about the live environments (booted from USB):
In summary: I could *not* reproduce it in the live environments of Kubuntu 13.10 and 14.04. But I 'suffer' from this problem on my currently installed machine (Kubuntu 13.10). It does not matter whether I use my regular user account or a newly created one. I guess, the difference between my current installation and the live environments are installed packages and system configurations (e.g. in /etc). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1071722 Title: Mouse cursor duplicated in dual screen setup Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have attached a external monitor to my laptop. When I my the mouse from the primary display (my laptop screen) to the secondary display (external monitor), the mouse cursor image gets duplicated. On the primary screen it freezes its last location (so moving the mouse more quickly, makes sure that the mouse image is clearly visible) and on the secondary screen it keeps on performing as it should. When I move the mouse back to the primary screen, the duplicated mouse image disappears and everything works like normal again. Funny thing: when the duplication is 'active' the frozen mouse, still changes it image (pointing finger, 'text thingy', resizing arrows, etc) when I my mouse (on the secondary screen) is hovering over elements that makes the image change. Since Ubuntu 12.10 I use the xserver-xorg-video-radeon package, as fglrx does not support my ATI video card (HD 3650) anymore. So I do not know whether the problem is also existing pre-12.10.
