Mouse cursor stuck in top left of screen but can still move and interact with invisible mouse
I was able to fix this by installing the nvidia-370 drivers. Try the following steps:
Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 at the login screen. This will drop you down into a console where you can login to your user account.
Run
sudo service lightdm stop
- Use the following commands to download and install nvidia-370. Make sure you are connected to the internet:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install nvidia-370 nvidia-settings
Disable the
nouveau
driver. This step may be unnecessary but I did it anyway. Edit the file/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
and addblacklist nouveau
at the bottom. Save and Exit.Run the command
sudo update-initramfs -u
- Restart with
sudo reboot
