I also have a four-monitor setup with two graphics cards. I'm also experiencing the mouse pointer getting stuck + flickering problem after upgrading to Lucid. I use absolute screen positioning (since my four monitors have different sizes), and I have taken care to put the screens in order from top left to bottom right. I thought this fixed the problem since I didn't crash for a few days, but the problem just showed up again.

If xinerama is deprecated as many people are saying, then there needs to be another solution for multiple video cards / multiple monitor setups; I have been using Ubuntu since Dapper and this has never been a problem until the recent upgrade.

My xorg.conf is attached. Thank you!
