Title:
[Dell XPS 13 9350] Mouse cursor flickers when connecting to 2nd
monitor using Displaylink Dell 4-in-1 adapter
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I experienced the same issue reported in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1724307 on
my Dell XPS 13 (9350) running Kubuntu 18.10 (4.18.0-25-generic) with
KDE Plasma 5.13.5. My laptop was connected to the 2nd monitor using
the VGA port on the Dell 4-in-1 adapter with the DisplayLink driver
5.2.14
I followed the comment in this link
(https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi/issues/29#issuecomment-479529359)
and mannually added /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/21-displaylink.conf
file with the content below:
Section "Device"
Identifier "DisplayLink"
Driver "modesetting"
Option "PageFlip" "false"
EndSection
After rebooting, the mouse no longer flickers when connecting to the
2nd monitor using the DisplayLink adapater so I think it could be a
solution for this problem.
