** Description changed:

- Using the new official DisplayLink driver for Ubuntu from
- http://www.displaylink.com/downloads/ubuntu.php for my USB-DisplayLink-
- Adapter causes on the two main monitors (DisplayPort and internal
- monitor) a flickering mouse. The pointer doesn't flicker on third
- monitor (DisplayLink monitor).
+ I have a three screen setup, the built-in laptop screen, a monitor
+ connected directly into the laptop via DisplayPort, and a monitor
+ connected via a USB DisplayLink Adapter.
  
- This also seems to be related to this bug:
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1485682
+ What happens is that when a monitor is connected via the USB DisplayLink
+ Adapter, the mouse icon flickers only on the laptop screen and monitor
+ connected via DisplayPort (not on the monitor connected via USB
+ DisplayLink Adapter).
+ 
+ However, this is also reproducible if I either deactivate the built-in
+ laptop screen, or disconnect the DisplayPort connected monitor.
+ 
+ WORKAROUND: Disconnect the USB DisplayLink Adapter for the computer.

Title:
  Mouse pointer flickers at using DisplayLink

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I have a three screen setup, the built-in laptop screen, a monitor
  connected directly into the laptop via DisplayPort, and a monitor
  connected via a USB DisplayLink Adapter.

  What happens is that when a monitor is connected via the USB
  DisplayLink Adapter, the mouse icon flickers only on the laptop screen
  and monitor connected via DisplayPort (not on the monitor connected
  via USB DisplayLink Adapter).

  However, this is also reproducible if I either deactivate the built-in
  laptop screen, or disconnect the DisplayPort connected monitor.

  WORKAROUND: Disconnect the USB DisplayLink Adapter for the computer.
