I was rather nervous about doing this. However, it is done.
I shall endeavour to try and remember to report its success or failure in
resolving the bug.
Thank you for your response.

Jen Hart, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
As per https://us.msi.com/product/motherboard/support/X99A-SLI-PLUS.html
#down-bios an update to your computer's buggy, insecure, and outdated
BIOS is available (1.9). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.
Also, you don't have to create a new bug report.
Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an
apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement
or not.
3) Please mark this report Status New.
If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.
Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
Intermittently mouse corrupt on one screen
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Tried Gnome tweaks, tried changing monitors around, primary, (in case it was
some how port related) etc.
Can not reset the mouse cursor once it corrupts. Only solution I found was a
reboot, which can be inconvenient.
Might be related to Java applications somehow and their borders?
P.S. I think my graphics card is R9 390 and has been picked up wrong
by this bug report and by one game I know about (it thinks it is a HD
5600)
