I confirm the findings of Marteen. My setup is very similar (KDE 5.9.2, kubuntu 12.04, fglrx, ATI Radeon HD 5000M), and I'm getting identical results (cursor on secondary monitor is OK, cursor on primary is corrupted).
My other findings: - hibernate to RAM -> wakup fixes this same as reboot does - you can fix this on 1st monitor and move to 2nd monitor by doing the following: 1) disable first monitor (I use krandrtray for this), the cursor is now corrupted on the 2nd monitor 2) enable 1st monitor again (cursor OK on 1st monitor, broken on 2nd one) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360724 Title: [RV515] Kubuntu: Corrupted mouse cursor after moving between screens Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On two machines, I've experienced a corrupted cursor. The cursor image seems to be 'cut in slices' and put back in the wrong order. The corruption is not easy to reproduce. When it does happen, it seems to happen after moving of the cursor between the different monitors. Configuration of the two machines: - Both machines have a dual screen setup. - Both machines are Dell desktops with an ATI graphics card. - Machine 1 has a R500 graphics chip, machine 2 a R600 graphics chip. I've seen the corruption on Intrepid and Jaunty. The Intrepid installations were running KDE 4.2 from PPA. The Jaunty installation was at beta. The problem occurs with different drivers, both fglrx and xf86-video- ati have this problem. Restarting the X session doesn´t restore the cursor. Only a reboot seems effective. Changing the cursor theme in KDE's system settings also has no effect. I'm unable to make a screenshot of the mouse cursor. When I make a screenshot using the GIMP, and tell it to include the mouse cursor, it captures a correct mouse cursor. Attached is a photo of poor quality (blame my phone), it however shows the problem.
