Disappointing mouse

On my new laptop I frequently use an external display and extend the desktop size to an external monitor. This is sweet, however there’s an annoying bug where the mouse frequently won’t display one one of the displays (either the laptop LCD or the external monitor won’t show it). I just found a tip on some CNet forums that seem to fix this for me:

Go into display settings for the mouse and turn on mouse trails.

That seems to do it. Mouse trails are kind of annoying but on the shortest setting it’s not that noticeable and it’s definitely a better option than trying to guess where the mouse is all the time. Hooray for teh internets!
