Hello All,
Didn’t know where to start posting… Thus I’m here at my current Distro’s forums.
I’ve had a problem with my pointer blinking or flat out disappearing when reaching the top of my primary monitor for some time. Happens if I’m just moving the mouse or dragging a window. Full screen video or Application still happens- exception is games. Used different Distros (StormOS, PopOS!, Garuda XDE & XFCE). I’ve tried all sorts of google fu to try and resolve the issue, but nothing i’ve found has been able to help; Mouse settings, Appearance settings, Display Settings, etc.
Setup: I have 2 monitors. One in Landscape running 3840x2160 (primary) connected via display port. The secondary is 1080x1920 - portrait flipped- connected via HDMI. Issue is only on the Primary monitor.

If there is system info I missed that might be needed, I will be happy to re run

and get it for the requester. In addition, thank you for any and all help in advanced.
