UBUNTU 14.04LTS Desktop

Three displays, two NVIDIA graphics cards, not the same type of card, two different ones.

Two monitors on one card, 1 monitor on another card HDMI.

The two monitors on the one card are the ones that exhibit cursor flicker with the default drivers out of the box.

If I add NVIDIA driver, the two monitors on the one card work fine, no flickering, but I cannot set up third monitor to run!

I also noticed the flickering is more prevalant if I am playing a catch up TV video in a browser. I think the video stream makes the problem worse. If I PAUSE the video, the flickering cursor reduces significantly. One I start the stream again the cursor flickers significantly.

Hope this helps.
