When I installed Ubuntu (11.10) a few days ago, my mouse cursor was smooth and responsive. Now it's very slow, choppy, and clumsy. I hadn't really changed much (at least I don't think so), all I've really done is just install Ubuntu and install of all its updates. I'm pretty sure it just started happening the first or second time I rebooted.

I'm very new to Linux, and don't even know where to begin. Can anyone offer some assistance?

System info:

  • Intel 920 i7 @ 3.6GHz (2.66 stock)
  • 6GB DDR3 RAM
  • 2x Radeon HD 6860 (I haven't done anything to enable Crossfire in Ubuntu, though)
  • WD 120GB HDD

Thank you.

If you have a Bluetooth Mouse and have high Wi-Fi traffic, this could be the cause. There are bugs tracked in launchpad for different hardware. If you don't download stuff with extreme speed, but suffer this problem, then it's something different.
