Maarten Bezemer, thank you for providing that clarification. Did this problem not occur with radeon in a release prior to Quantal, or with fglrx-* in a release prior to Quantal?
** Description changed: I have attached a external monitor to my laptop. When I my the mouse from the primary display (my laptop screen) to the secondary display - (external monitor), the mouse cursor image gets duplicated. - - On the primary screen it freezes its last location (so moving the mouse more quickly, makes sure that the mouse image is clearly visible) and on the secondary screen it keeps on performing as it should. - When I move the mouse back to the primary screen, the duplicated mouse image disappears and everything works like normal again. - Funny thing: when the duplication is 'active' the frozen mouse, still changes it image (pointing finger, 'text thingy', resizing arrows, etc) when I my mouse (on the secondary screen) is hovering over elements that makes the image change. - - Since Ubuntu 12.10 I use the xserver-xorg-video-radeon package, as fglrx - does not support my ATI video card (HD 3650) anymore. So I do not know - whether the problem is also existing pre-12.10. + (external monitor), the mouse cursor image gets duplicated.
