[Problem]
Mouse cursor corruption when switching users with an older ATI card

[Original Description]
I'm guessing the box is 64x64 pixels. It's got horizontal lines across it. The 
mouse pointer looks completely normal in screenshots, so I am including a 
picture taken with my phone.

It looked messed up in the same way on the other account, and continues
to look messed up now that I have switched back. It still functions
normally, but it's a little hard to know where you're clicking since the
actual pointer seems to be a bit away from the upper left corner of this
box.

I've just reproduced it twice tonight. It seems to happen randomly when
switching to other accounts or to the login screen. I can't get it to
happen consistently however so it's hard to tell what's causing it.
Since my last reboot, I've switched through a bunch of accounts, gnome3,
unity, and unity 2d, without getting the mouse corruption.

By the way, I use a program called redshift, which causes a reddish hue
at night, as can be seen in the picture. Redshift does not appear to
affect the mouse pointer though. It may also cause this bug I guess.
