Nice work narrowing this down everyone! I wanted to comment that even though I can no longer trigger the bug through "normal" usage (with the exception of opengl games), I CAN still trigger the bug with the xte "mousemove" commands. As is true for everyone else, You must move the cursor off of the

Chimaster, The performance tweaks are located here: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=118088. I believe these are geared for improving 2d performance, so running games, you may not see a benefit. The article also mentions that the 180 drivers already have these settings by default,

Since my last post, I updated the performance settings and have not had the bug triggered since. I have also noticed a very significant 2d performance boost, which I have been very happy with. I can even run opengl games in windowed mode and the bug is no long triggered. This used to trigger the bu

I've been trying to follow Adar's intructions, but the vmware-guestd binary in the open-vm-tools-dbg package has some other error causing it not to run at all. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong though as I'm not familiar with using gdb. theg...@tmh-dev1:/usr/lib/debug/usr/sbin$ sudo ./vmware-gues

I can confirm this bug. Host: VMWare ESXi 3.5 Guest: Ubuntu Server 32bit After getting the networking thing fixed from bug #2899921, I am now noticing that the vmware-guestd process crashes after roughly one-two minutes of running apparently normally. This will continue to happen whether rebooti

Just to make sure everyone is clear. The Twinview option is only viable to those with 2 or less monitors. Twinview does not functionally support 3 or more monitors, so this is still an issue for anyone that is required to use xinerama for this reason. -- X.org will intermittently stop responding

MetraDynamix, Try adding this section to your xorg.conf: Section "ServerFlags" Option "AutoAddDevices" "false" EndSection This did not completely eliminate the bug, but it reduced it's frequency by at least half or better. It also fixed some strange keyboard issues I was experiencing with vm

I've struggled with twinview as well before upgrading to 3 monitors. It will do it's own xinerama type implementation, but I've noticed that the nvidia-settings does not turn off xinerama in the xorg.conf if it has already been set. This is usually only a problem if you merge settings when saving y

I have also noticed that using either rdesktop, or vmware workstation seems to trigger it. I also installed the frets on fire game, and simply opening that application and closing it again triggers the bug ever single time. I don't notice the same cursor changing anomaly that described before when
