That is strange. Nevertheless thanks for the contribution. I am trying
this out on my second ubuntu installation now.

...

... and you are right???! I can't reproduce the problem on this machine.
Seems i have to dig deeper into my environment. There has to be a tool
installed on my other two computer that trigger the behaviour. I seem to
remember, that the cursor wasn't moved visually on the other ubuntu
installation. nevertheless the action for the upper left corner was
triggered.

So, if there is no real toggle in gvim to turn off mouse movements, I
have to look, where else this mouse movement is triggered. Does anyone
have an idea, how to check which currently running application is moving
the mouse?

Greetings
