Hi Christopher, 1) it's a WAVLINK USB 3.0 Dual Video Docking Station containing the DisplayLink technology: http://a.co/aifGl8J
2) This issue occurred with a previous version of the DisplayLink driver (1.3.54) as well. 3) This issue occurred with 17.04, 17.10 (as of yesterday) and now 16.04, all x64. 4) I am using a DELL XPS 13 and have no other means of attaching an external monitor :-( 5) see (3), this happens also as of the latest cut of 17.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724307 Title: Mouse cursor flickers when using external DisplayLink monitor Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This may be a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1278223.

Usage of Google Chrome seems to aggravate the issue, although it's not gone otherwise.
