This affects me on both fglrx, fglrx-updates, and the latest driver from AMD (as of today 2012-09-26). I have seen it since I build this computer with AMD cards. It only shows up on occasion and is hard to reproduce. I am using two Radeon HD5700 cards and Kubuntu 64bit 12.04. I am using two monitors, the problem only shows up on the primary display.
Rebooting clears the problem until it appears again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/814777 Title: Occassional mouse cursor corruption on primary display Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I often get into the state where the cursor on my internal laptop display (1920x1080 resolution) gets corrupted into a single-pixel wide vertical dotted bar (see approximate center of attached screenshot), but the mouse cursor on my external display (1920x1200 resolution) is fine. alternate cursors (window resize handles/text cursor, etc) either display the same vertical bar, stretch it out a few extra pixels, or cause the cursor to disappear entirely. gnome-screenshot captures that include the cursor _do_ appear correct, but not sure how much of that is screenshot-capturing-cursor-emulation type code.
