I've tested 4 different versions of nvidia drivers and all behaved the same. I haven't encountered a version that provided a better workaround.
I haven't mentioned it in the original post but it's probably relevant - if I switch an external monitor the new monitor is not detected. In order for the laptop to detect a new external monitor I need to logout/reboot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569876 Title: Mouse trails disappear only on window refresh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1569876/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
