[SOLVED] Mouse Cursor Misbehaving

sherminatorex7 · 2025-08-13 18:21:58

Hello,

The mouse cursor misbehave on my machine only on Arch Linux with Xorg but not with Wayland.
I tried and it does not happen in the UEFI or in GParted.

It started a few days ago.

It used to work seamlessly, maybe it's an update that caused it.

I tried reinstalling Arch Linux in case I broke something but it still happens.

It happens when the polling rate is set to 1000Hz but does not happen when set to 500Hz, 250Hz or 125Hz.
I tried on two different mouses, one usb and one wireless, happens on both.

I don't know how to precisely explain, the cursor sort of lags behind when moving it around. Like it can't keep up the pace.

It occurs when SWCursor is set to false in xorg.conf and stops when set to true.
I think it may be because of the amdgpu driver.

My GPU is RDNA 4 (RX 9070 XT).

Anyone encountered something similar ?

Do you get it w/ xf86-video-amdgpu?

sherminatorex7 · 2025-08-13 19:18:50

Yes I get it no matter if xf86-video-amdgpu is installed or not.

The cursor would be painted directly into the framebuffer, if it's not the DDX it's kinda likely that wayland (which compositor?) uses a software cursor.

How does it behave if you cause frequent updates?
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 1#p2253171

Is this a notebook panel?

The Wayland compositor is Sway.

Sorry I'm not sure I understand what you're asking.

It's a mid tower PC plugged to a 1080p monitor with Display Port.

I forgot to mention it stops when I run

 sudo libinput debug-events

(libinput reports a pointer motion from the mouse every second).

See the link, there' s a trivial loop to print the date at 60fps

Do you https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sway#No_visible_cursor ?

sherminatorex7 · 2025-08-13 20:38:47

Oh yes, when I run the loop the problem stops, that explains why the " libinput debug-events " thing mitigates it.

sherminatorex7 · 2025-08-13 20:40:58

The cursor is always visible I don't have that problem.

sherminatorex7 · 2025-08-13 21:31:06

Thank you, you've been super helpful. It's fixed ! I set the GPU performance level to high and the problem is gone.

I followed this https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AMDGPU … nce_levels.

This is coming from the kernel. You wanna pay some attention as to whether this gets better w/ updates and you can use dynamic power profiles again (there've been plenty reports about this)
Otherwise we'll need to start to have a look whom to yell at to fix this

sherminatorex7 · 2025-08-14 05:44:54

But how can it be the kernel's fault since that happened too with the LTS one ? I mean it was a new issue for me that never happened on previous kernels versions that's why I don't get it.

seth · 2025-08-14 05:54:24

Backporting bugs into the LTS kernel isn't unheard of…
Does it happen if you downgrade to an older kernel like the last 6.14 one from the https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_Linux_Archive ?

On a stretch, a change in mesa might have cause differences in whether/how dynamic power profile states are triggered, but it's way more sketchy to dowgrade mesa in isolation.

Iff this is a recent regression: what packages where in the critical update?

Okay I didn't know that was a thing.

It still happens with linux-zen 6.14.9.
I'm gonna try a previous version of linux-firmware-amdgpu and let you know.

I can't tell you because it hasn't been carried over to the new installation.

sherminatorex7 · 2025-08-14 19:14:19

I don't have the cursor issue with linux-firmware-amdgpu 20250613.12fe085f-5 and linux-zen 6.14.9 even though the GPU performance level is set to auto, the cursor is hardware and the polling rate is 1000hz.

I manually reinstalled both linux-zen 6.15.9 and linux-firmware-amdgpu 20250708-1 and weirdly there's no issue with the cursor.

seth · 2025-08-14 19:32:12

Any chance you had forgotten to install the firmware before?
R/n all you can realistically do is to wait and see whether the problem returns…
