Bug Description
installed from Alpha 4 UNR daily USB image. Machine is an ASUS eee PC 900, 16 & 4 GiB SSDs.
In the main UNR interface, the "Home" screen, if you will, mouse cursor movement is very jerky, and more than a little annoying. I don't have this when any other application is in the foreground.
It looks like it might be related to the mouseover stuff that makes the icon titles/
If the highlighting behavior is toggleable, it's not readily apparent where that setting would be.

Thanks for reporting this bug. It sounds like the drivers aren't providing hardware acceleration for OpenGL. I know that recently, Jaunty has had a few issues with the intel drivers and their performance, so that may be the reason.
Just to check, could you please run `glxgears` and report back with the average framerate you get after running for about 20 seconds.
