When I use the mouse on the external screen the cursor has no problem but when I go on the built-in monitor the pointer will blink (disappear and reappear) every time there is some kind of refresh on either screen (e.g. I type something or something is displaying text in the terminal). My current display settings are: Display Mode: Join Displays Primary Display: either doesn't make any difference Built in display: - Orientation: Landscape - Resolution: 3840x2160 - Refresh Rate: 60,00Hz - Scale: 200% - Fractional Scaling: ON External Display: - Orientation: Landscape - Resolution: 1920x1080 - Refresh Rate: 60,00Hz - Scale: 100% - Fractional Scaling: ON Ubuntu release: 20.04 LTS Xorg version: 1:7.7+19ubuntu14 Expected behavior: Pointer doesn't blink Current behavior: Pointer blinks ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+19ubuntu14 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-31.35-generic 5.4.34 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-31-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.2 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/boot.log' CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Fri Jun 5 10:27:31 2020 DistUpgraded: 2020-04-24 10:45:52,182 DEBUG Running PostInstallScript: './xorg_fix_proprietary.py' DistroCodename: focal DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: nvidia, 440.64, 5.4.0-31-generic, x86_64: installed nvidia, 440.64, 5.4.0-33-generic, x86_64: installed ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 [8086:191b] (rev 06) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
