As mentioned in the title, an additional cursor appears in the left upper corner after i use my graphical tablet. It only goes away after i log out/reboot. There weren’t such an issue before i updated to fedora 44.

Looks like the same issue as in the thread below.
Interestingly, that user was using Intel graphics. But from your experience it seems like Nvidia is affected too.
Hi all,
I’m running Fedora 44 Beta on a Lenovo ThinkPad T480 with Intel graphics.
After resuming from suspend, an extra cursor appears in the top-left corner of the screen. That behavior is consistent, since it happens every single resuming. is It’s not just a visual artifact, since the cursor actually interacts with the UI. For example, it keeps the top-left elements in a “hovered” state and changes to a spinner along with the main cursor.
I’ve already disabled all GNOME Shell extensions to …
Thanks for the reply.
Adding MUTTER_DEBUG_DISABLE_HW_CURSORS=1
in /etc/environment seems to fix the problem
Nvm,the issue still persists,but the ghost one appears after some time,even after the tablet was disconnected.
Update: The easiest fix i found was to set graphic tablet in absolute mode rather than artist mode.
