You have been subscribed to a public bug: As reported in [1] and experienced by me today under 12.04 the mouse pointer starts moving twice as fast as soon as I plug in a second screen to use as an extension. This only happens with my trackpad (using a Dell XPS 15z) but not with the external mouse attached at the same time.
Don' know if there is any command I can run to make this claim more solid. Steps to reproduce: 1. Attach second screen. 2. In Displays settings choose NOT to mirror the displays. (Side note: I also chose to not have a second launcher, dunno if that matters). 3. Try pointing at some buttons with the trackpad. In horizontal direction the pointer moves twice as fast as vertically.
