Pretty irritating bug with the GUI, when mouse is moved near the right hand side of the screen it does not respond to movement for a period of 1 - 2 seconds. I have 2x GeForce GTX 8800 in SLI which I use for gaming with Windows. It would unrealistic to have to remove a card just to get Ubuntu working properly. When I loaded Ubuntu from the Live CD I didn't have this problem. I think this has to do with the nvidia drivers I was prompted to load.

So I went to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and uninistalled the nVidia graphics drivers and the mouse is back to working normally. Though I do wonder how I could get this working properly using the nVidia driver. Maybe it's not worth the trouble...
