Thanks! I do use external screen rotation when I'm docked. I hadn't noticed a simple association, but that might be at least one trigger for the problem.
Also, trying these steps from the other bug: xrandr --output LVDS1 --rotate left # do something, click a few buttons... xrandr --output LVDS1 --rotate normal did cause a double cursor for me just now. So this is likely it. Does that mean we can easily get a fix in 14.10? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388887 Title: two cursors instead of one Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since upgrading from 14.04 to 14.10, I sometimes (not sure what triggers or fixes it) have a double cursor. It persists across applications and the desktop. When I do a screen capture, the cursor is not visible. There is one cursor in the right place, and then below and to the right of it is another cursor, pointing at a different angle, that follows it around everywhere.
