Package: x2vnc
Version: 1.7.2-6+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I have been using x2vnc on occasion to control one nearby computer from
another for many years, and have today been trying it out on bullseye for
the first time.

I find that the movement of the pointer in the remote screen is erratic -
differing depending on the chosen direction. For example, when used "west"
- my typical setup - the pointer comes back to the local screen a little
over half way across. When used "east", the right third or so of the screen
is unreachable. I appear to be unable to go "north" off my screen when
trying it that way (though on another computer this resulted in y-axis
movement only on the remote screen), similarly I cannot go "south", but only
limited x-axis movement was available on the other system.

In all cases this is connecting to a tigervnc-xorg-extension. It is hard
to know in which package the bug lies, so feel free to reassign the bug if
necessary.

In the past I have had smooth access to the whole screen, with the transition
back to the local not happening until the edge, and I expected the same
again.
