Mouse Tail lags and drags through out the Desktop
My Linux Mint 17.1 64 bit Rebecca has a lag issue when using the mouse. I start to use the mouse and the cursor is lagging behind it creating a mouse trail or cursor trail. Is there anyway to get it to stop? Everything else seems to work fine but it is very hard to use Linux when the mouse cursor is lagging behind creating multiple cursors on the desktop.

Re: Mouse Tail lags and drags through out the Desktop
I'm using Linux Mint 17.2 Cinnamon right now (both kernel 3.16.0-39 and 4.0.7) with a GTX 970 and the propietary nvidia drivers (352.21) installed, and I can confirm this.
Mouse is still lagging behind, which is especially notable when dragging around windows.
Edit: Tried to change the mouse polling rate to 10,8,4 and 0- but nothing changed. (I followed this tutorial: http://www.urbanterror.info/forums/topi ... on-ubuntu/)
I also tried turning off "Sync To VBlank" in nvidia-settings and rebooted, but again- nothing happened.

Experiencing the same problem the OP describes. Same setup too. Could someone from the dev team chime in?

I have the same problem with mint 17.3, kernel 4.2.0-22-generic, nvidia 970 and proprietary drivers 352.63-0ubuntu0.14.04.1
