The latest Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is awesome! I chose to run an upgrade on the Ubuntu 13.10 to get to the latest one.

Except for one thing. Right after the upgrade, I am randomly facing a weird issue with mouse pointer. After I keep working on an app's window (Firefox, for example), the mouse pointer would start misbehaving and it would start to actually point somewhat 20 pixels below what it appears to me. This issue occurs only with maximized windows. And it occurs randomly. It may not happen at all or it may happen quite frequently.
The issue can temporarily be dodged by restoring the window by double clicking on the title and then re-maximizing it again.

Unfortunately,
I could not find any solution to this myself for a long time. Also
Unity was very heavy on resources of my laptop. Hence, I decided to
switch to xubuntu-desktop instead. It is very fast and light... Also it
does not have this issue. :)
Use this command in terminal to install xubuntu-desktop on your already working ubuntu.
sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop gksu leafpad synaptic
After you install it, you can switch to it by logging out of your system and then on the login screen, you would have the option to switch to Xubuntu session.
Feel free to contact me incase you have any issues.
