I also have this on a fresh installation of Ubuntu 16.04 when using nvidia-384.
Most workarounds do not work: - Option "DRI3" "1" seems to have no effect. - I'm already using lightdm (default) and not sddm, so the workaround of replacing sddm is N/A. - I can't use the open-source driver because of other bugs. Booting is a pain and external monitors are not recognized. - Even when one user is logged in, the problem manifests. The only thing that works is to log out and back in, without reconnecting any displays. But this is highly inconvenient and not a viable solution. Can we put more priority on this issue please? What is missing to get it in a queue? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to plasma-workspace in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1684240 Title: Lagging square around mouse pointer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-375/+bug/1684240/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
