2017-10-17 22:24:25 penalvch description This may be a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1278223. In order to provide more information, there was a request to open another bug and attach the relevant info to it. OS: Ubuntu 16.04 x64 Kernel: 4.10.0-37-generic X.Org X Server: 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 (v1.19.3) Monitor 1: 1920 x 1080 - Laptop's Native Monitor Monitor 2: 1920 x 1080 - DisplayLink (USB) connected AOC E2775SJ Monitor Using DisplayLink driver v1.4 (latest as of today), the mouse screen flickers on refresh both on the external as well as on the native monitor, and it seems worse on the laptop's monitor than on the external one, going as far as vanishing for several minutes (pointer still being active as I can see icons being highlighted, etc. but no mouse pointer being drawn). Usage of Google Chrome seems to aggravate the issue, although it's not gone otherwise.

Animations/overlays or typing inside a Chrome window causes the mouse pointer to flicker more often. If there is no interaction or animation, the mouse pointer remains static and drawn.
