I’ve installed EVE using Steam, and I’m playing it using Steam Proton 4.2.9. Everything appears to be working just fine (glorious!), except the cursor is flickering like a madman when moving it.

I have tried the “Interval Immediate” setting and I’ve tried switching between fullscreen and windowed mode, both to no avail. I’ve also tried the three different graphic setting presets: The cursor continues to flicker.

Anybody got a fix for that specific issue?

Ubuntu 18.04 (HWE enabled)  
Kernel 5.0.0-23-generic  
Mesa 19.0.8  
CPU Ryzen7 2700X  
3D card: AMD RX480
