Public bug reported:

After upgrading from 11.10 to 12.04 on a Thinkpad W520 system all
mouse/pointer input devices (on this machine that includes the so-called
'TrackPoint pointing stick', a 'TouchPad', and, what I actually use, a
generic wireless USB mouse) fail to work properly if the laptop is in
it's docking station. The pointer is 'stuck' along the left edge of the
screen. The pointer can be moved vertically, but not horizontally. If
the laptop is removed from it's docking station then 'mouse' devices
appear to function normally.

In previous Ubuntu releases, I have not needed to do anything for the
docking station to work.

FWIW, my normal set up is the laptop in a docking station with two
ViewSonic VX2450wm LED monitors in a 'twinview' mode, and a wireless USB
keyboard and mouse. The laptop itself has a Nvidia Quadro 1000M graphics
device. None of the mouse devices are attached to the docking station.
