Regarding your question:

File a new report via a terminal:
ubuntu-bug xorg
>"How do I use the gnome flashback package?"
Install it, reboot, and it should be an option when you want to login.
** Summary changed:
- Cursor flickering using DisplayLink and USB Monitor
+ Cursor flickering using HP EliteDisplay S140u USB Portable Monitor
** Description changed:
When using the HP EliteDisplay S140u USB Display on my Lenovo T430s, the
cursor is flickering on the Built-In laptop screen, when the other
screen is connected. The flickering mainly occurs, when the cursor is
hovering over the program header or the upper ubuntu status bar (black
bar on top).

- I have seen this bug has been reported many times, I myself have easily
- found 3 reports from several versions of Ubuntu, I would highly
- appreciate if this could finally be fixed.
-
- Also, related to that, the CPU rises to 100% quite quickly and the
- Computer crashes completely. It's enough to open a browser, then a file
- explorer, and trying to open a pdf from the file explorer. This only
- happens when the display is connected. I will file another bug report
- for this.
