Christina Lena Korosec, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
As per http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=5405142&swLangOid=8&swEnvOid=4192 an update to your computer's buggy, insecure, and outdated BIOS is available (1.36). When you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.comcommunity/BIOSUpdate how does this improve the situation? For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. Also, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect): sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not. 3) Please mark this report Status New. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your help. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.36 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1596878 Title: Mouse flickering and mouse trails with DL screen attached Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When attaching a screen on a DisplayLink device, the cursor will flicker on all non-DisplayLink screens. Additionally, the cursor will leave trails over various UI elements that update as the cursor passes (such as buttons, menus, progress bars, etc.) The issue occurs only when a DisplayLink device is attached and driving a display. However, DisplayLink told me the issue is not specific to their hardware, and to make a bug report here.
