Title:
Second (dead) mouse pointer on screen after applying fractional
scaling
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After setting fractional scaling to 150%, a dead mouse pointer stays
visible on screen. It is smaller than the functional one (it seems to
be the size it should have at 100%).
My configuration:
- Ubuntu 20.04
- AMD Radeon 5700 XT using open source drivers
- Logitech MX Master 3 over Bluetooth
- 4k LG Monitor
I saw similar bugs reported for other hardware configs, but they got
closed/duped (with a request to reopen, so I am doing that here):
- Nvidia: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1827428
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1829221
I see the following work-arounds:
- Move the mouse to the bottom right edge of the screen. This needs to be
done on every login however, as the login screen itself is at 100%
- Install a mainline kernel (I tried 5.6 and didn't see the issue with it) -
however, that breaks other things
