On an acer latop with XFCE, the mouse cursor is trailed by a rectangle
about 1/2" below and offset to the right.

In Settings -> Mouse and Touchpad -> Themes I can change the size of
cursor, which doesn't affect the size of the rectangle.

How do I get rid of this rectangle?

For anyone who has the kaveri chipset, here's how I made it work:

1. for kernel 3.16.2, F20 is in koji.

2. librm - add the kaveri pciids, and rebuild. The libdrm in koji does not have the pciid.

3. mesa - same as libdrm

4. xorg-x11-drv-ati - get xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.4.0-3.fc22.x86_64 from koji. This does not have the new pciids. Get xf86-video-ati from git. Copy:
src/ati_pciids_gen.h
		
src/pcidb/ati_pciids.csv	
		
src/radeon_chipinfo_gen.h	
		
src/radeon_chipset_gen.h
		
src/radeon_pci_chipset_gen.h

src/radeon_pci_device_match_gen.h

to the rpm source. Simply patching didn't work for some reason. Rebuild the rpm for f20, but disable glamor.
