I can reproduce this bug on the several sdl games I tested, like OpenArena, Supertux and Supertux 2

I have a "criminal +" mouse and the cursor always get back to the bottom-right corner at sensibilities 600, 800 and 1200 dpi. This bug seems to disappears at sensibilities 1600 and 200 dpi.
I have another bug and I think it's linked : when I try to click with any button of my mouse, the cursor get bak to the bottom-right corner, at any sensibilities.

I have another mouse which hasn't control of sensibility, a Kensington mouse. With this mouse, there isn't any bug.
I connected the two mouses at the same time to test this, so both were connected when I did tests.

if the Kensington's one is not connected, then the bug is still present.

That's a regression because this bug doesn't exist in Jaunty and even in Karmic Alpha 2.

I forgot : the Kensington's mouse seems to have a sensibility of about 600 dpi. (sorry : "mouses" => "mice")

It's not a duplicate; mouse goes to center without clicks; reproduced in 12.04 Beta2

This might be caused by "unclutter" program. Try executing
# pkill unclutter

For me it worked.
