[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1490684] Re: Mouse cursor duplicated in dual screen setup

2015-10-06 Thread Eric Layton
Is there a step you can suggest that doesn't involving upgrading the
kernel?

My problem didn't occur when running 14.04 previously (before
reinstalling), so I find it hard to believe it's a kernel issue.

2015-09-24 Thread Eric Layton
This seems like a pretty radical departure from my current installation,
which I'm hesitant to try.  I can't arbitrarily hose this machine.  What
guarantees do I have this will result in a working machine?  Can you
provide rollback steps in case it doesn't boot or X doesn't start?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1490684] Re: Mouse cursor duplicated in dual screen setup

2015-09-23 Thread Eric Layton
Thanks for the response, and very clear instructions on how to upgrade
the BIOS under Linux.  It's much appreciated.

I upgraded the BIOS:

$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
1402
08/09/2012

The problem of a duplicate cursor getting stuck on the previous screen
is much less common now, but does still occur.  Especially when moving
the cursor from one screen to the other relatively quickly.

I should probably clarify that, like the original bug, this didn't
happen in Ubuntu 12.04.  I upgraded that to Ubuntu 14.04 and the problem
still wasn't there.  Then I wiped the machine and installed Kubuntu
14.04 directly, and the problem manifested itself.

Thanks for your continued help.

Nevermind, it's not really any more or less frequent after the BIOS
upgrade.

One further thing I've observed is that the cursor duplication IS more
frequent if I have open windows near the edges of the screens  where the
transfer is taking place.  If it's just the desktop, then the cursor
gets stuck on occasion, but not as often.
