I have just upgraded from 17.10 to 18.04. Every went smoothly but now my mouse cursor randomly freeze for about 5 seconds.



I was using Gnome Shell on Wayland. And I got no problem (except some lags here and then which seems to be gone); now I am still using it and I have that problem.



Moreover, I tried Gnome Shell on Xorg and the problem is stil there !



I tried changing the graphics driver (the intel one aka i965) by using a more up to date one by using the PPA oibaf. It also changed nothing.



I have not tried yet Unity but ....



  • I have changed the battery of the mouse, still no change.

  • I have changed the USB port the receiver of the wireless mouse is in, still no change.

  • I will try another mouse but I don't expect it to be different because all was fine before the upgrade and not now.

It is really the mouse freezing only and not the display because I let running glxgears while a froze happen, and the wheels were still spinning.

  • This works fine in a freshly installed Ubuntu 18.04. I had to do it. I couldn't continue with those random freeze every minute.

  • Are you using external USB mouse? I experienced pauses in external USB devices when after I run powertop with --auto-tune. For my case, the devices is being put to sleep/wakeup and this is behaving like they freeze if not moved constantly. If you see this behaviour, it could be because of overly agressive power saving option.
