From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Execute "sudo dmesg | grep -i mouse" in a terminal and get back to us

Ok, it's not your mouse, it's something else, probably a rendering issue. Can I make a wild guess? Are you on X11? In that case try this:

Add this

Section "Device"  
    Identifier "AMD"  
    Driver "amdgpu"  
    Option "SWCursor" "True"  
    Option "VariableRefresh" "True"  
EndSection

to a new file called /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-amdgpu.conf and reboot.

AMD GPUs sometimes have this wild random bug with hardware cursor rendering.

Be aware, that you might get some side effects, like flickering buttons when hovering with the mouse.
