System Information

I confirm:

  • that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

When using Car mechanic simulator 2018 on ubuntu 18.04, the mouse cursor sometimes makes apparently unmotivated jumps to the top-left of the screen. This happens independently of changes in resolution, mouse sensitivity or whether or not the game is running in a window, and happens with both the track pad and usb mouse.

Reproduction
