externally connected display

***

symbols.

***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect external display to NVidia driven port on Intel/Nvidia hybrid
laptop
2. Move mouse from external display and primary display
OBSERVED RESULT
with inconsistent results, the image of the mouse cursor will remain toward the
edge of the exited display while an active cursor will continue on the other
displays. This "ghost" image cursor will remain until the active cursor
re-enters the view of the external display.
EXPECTED RESULT
Mouse cursor flows from one display to the next, disappearing completely from
the frame of the exited display
