Edward Gibbs, it will help immensely if you filed a new report with Ubuntu by ensuring you have the package xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information running the following from a terminal: ubuntu-bug xorg Also, please feel free to subscribe me to it.

[Bug 1569876] Re: Mouse trails disappear only on window refresh
I am having a nearly identical problem with my P50 and an ASUS external monitor. In my case the trails last for a second or two then go away until I move the mouse again. I have the same distorted cursor problem. I've tried connecting with DP and HDMI, using proprietary or community drivers, purging nvidia drivers and reloading, etc. By accident I have discovered that opening the System Settings and going to the Display settings (just going to them, not doing anything there) fixes it for as long as the Display settings are open. As soon as I close Display settings it comes right back. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569876 Title: Mouse trails disappear only on window refresh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1569876/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1569876] Re: Mouse trails disappear only on window refresh
Hi, I've updated my BIOS to 1.26 and I couldn't observe a difference in behavior. I still see mouse trails when using the Nouveau display driver. The NVIDIA driver (now at version 367.18) still works in one setup (no mouse trails) but doesn't seem to work in another setup (screen flickers and then freezes). By one setup / another setup I mean using different external monitors, both connected via DisplayPort, HDMI doesn't seem to work at all. 1. The output you asked for: > sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date N1EET52W (1.26 ) 05/10/2016 2. No improvement. 3. Marked status as New. ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569876 Title: Mouse trails disappear only on window refresh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1569876/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Avishay, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per the release notes from http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products /Laptops-and-netbooks/ThinkPad-P-Series- laptops/ThinkPad-P50?linkTrack=GPS%253ABody_Search%2BProducts==false an update to your computer's buggy, insecure, and outdated BIOS is available (1.26). When you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate how does this improve the situation? For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. Also, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect): sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not. 3) Please mark this report Status New. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags removed: cursor mouse resolution ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.26 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Critical => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569876 Title: Mouse trails disappear only on window refresh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1569876/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
