Package: libsdl1.2debian
Version: 1.2.7+1.2.8cvs20041007-4.1
Severity: important

If using SDL, and going into fullscreen mode, the mouse is rendered unusable
with my setup. The mouse will move to the right side of the screen when you try
to move it (not before), and will stay there no matter what.

The problem causing this is my xinerama setup: my right monitor is the one i
mostly use, and also for most of the fullscreen applications. On my left screen
it was working alright last time i checked (a few weeks ago).

Due to a debugging session when doing beta testing for Darwinia i discovered
that the problem is related to some xrel value (not sure if that's of SDL or
of Darwinia) being 1280 too large (my right screen starts at 1280x0, since my
left screen is 1280x960, like my right one).

It has been fixed in Darwinia by making a guess on the xinerama resolution and
substracting that from the xrel/yrel values already found. Most, if not all,
other programs i tried still suffer from this bug thought. I've found it to
only happen in programs using SDL, so i'm quite sure it's a bug in SDL.
