What information is needed to remove the "incomplete" mark from this
issue? It seems that the steps for reproduction are really clear cut:

 - Use two videocards with two monitors.

Or:

 - Setup and connect a DisplayLink device to a USB port and configure it
for use.

Then:

See mouse flickering on one of the monitors, usually the primary.

On my case, with a DisplayLink device on 14.04, the flickering is so bad
that the mouse is nearly invisible most of the time if it's positioned
in the bottom two thirds of the primary display.

I'd love to have a workaround in the form of a software drawn cursor,
but the `SWCursor` option in the `Device` section of my intel board on
Xorg.conf makes no difference.

Title:
  Mouse Flickering after adding 3rd Monitor

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in xorg package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  My issues is, after adding a 3rd monitor to Ubuntu 14.04, the mouse
  flickers (or blinks) when the cursor is on monitors one or two, but
  not 3.

  Monitor 1: 1440 x 900 - Laptop's Native Monitor
  Monitor 2: 1920 x 1080 - Laptop's HDMI Port's External Monitor
  Monitor 3: 1024 x 768 - SIIG USB 2.0 to VGA Pro Monitor

  Here's the video card that feeds my laptop's native monitor, monitor 2
  (hdmi).

  lspci | grep 'VGA\|Display'
  00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
  00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)

  The 3rd Monitor is powered through a Display Link certified SIIG USB
  2.0 to VGA Pro adapter (A2H1320X1374 - not sure what this number, but
  it is a sticker on back of the device):

  lsusb -tv

      |__ Port 6: Dev 2, If 1, Class=Video, Driver=uvcvideo, 480M

  Additionally, unity-control-center crashes sometimes after I "Restore
  previous settings", after selecting a resolution too high. This
  freezed my laptop, requiring a hard reboot.
