I also have repeatedly encountered this issue where the cursor gets stuck rapidly and repeatedly bouncing between my second and third monitor. I am running Ubuntu Linux 10.04 32-bit with the latest updates and the latest driver for my two NVidia GeForce GT430 graphics cards. I am running three monitors. When I first experienced this bug, my mouse and keyboard did not auto-detect the appropriate driver, now they do, and the bug still occurs.
This happens on average about once a week. I have had it happen three times in a day. I have never gone more than 3 weeks without this happening. I have lost work because of this. It's extremely annoying - and the issue is apparently This is a serious issue as the only exit strategy I have found is to reboot the system. The system is effectively hung, even if technically it's not a hang. I can telnet into my system to reboot it, although one time I couldn't even do that! I have found not tenable solution above. For one thing, I am running 32-bit Linux, so Dan Brown's solution wouldn't be satisfactory even if it was trusted software. I have synergy installed, but it is not running. Other people where I work are also experiencing this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570151 Title: mouse stuck jumping between screens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/570151/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
