Mackenzie: I was having all the symtoms in this bug and they may have been corrected by your patches. Thanks I should correct my self: When I said it crashed I really meant it became unresponsive, CPU usage by xorg became extremely high, and eventually had to be killed to regain control of the machine. What I may be experiencing is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/570151 which I thought was realted to this one due to the similarities.

Everything was going well after the xorg-server - 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7.2 update Had been crash-less for a while, but then it happened again. once yesterday and again 5 minutes ago :( Exact same behavior, mouse jumps back and forth between screens, xorg CPU usage skyrockets and the only way is to kill it.

SRU Request: TESTCASE: Enable Xinerama and place a screen either to the left of or above the primary screen and try to move the mouse cursor to the secondary screen. The patch is already included in the upstream code and in Maverick (in xserver 1.8). Furthermore the change is safe and unlikely to affect any other component of the xserver as Xinerama is what uses negative coordinates.

That is the work around, but the hope is that we have fixed the underlying bug. I have to admit that I have tried the ppa package, but I am glad it seems to be working. It sounds like the LTS package maintainers have two choices. Either add this patch into the current LTS release version of the package, or upgrade the package to the fixed upstream version.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
** Description changed: + Impact: mouse movements are incorrect when a display is placed to the left of or above the primary display (negative coordinates in use) + How the bug is addressed: revert to having signed ints representing coordinates on screens so that negative coordinates can be properly used + Patch: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=35383 + Testcase: see original report + Regression potential: no obvious regression potential + + === Original report === + Binary package hint: xorg The mouse is unusable on a second monitor using the nvidia drivers and Xinerama (Installed: 2:1.1-2). Upon moving to the second screen, the mouse cursor movement is erratic (although it does respond vaguely to physical mouse movement). The problem was introduced with lucid (and continues in beta 2). The mouse works as expected on the second screen in both intrepid and karmic with exact same xorg.conf and nvidia drivers. The problem appears even with only the minimal settings in xorg.conf to enable dual monitors. The problem appears whether the second monitor is rotated or not rotated. The problem does not occur with nvidia's TwinView implementation. The mouse and all other aspects of X work fine in lucid *without* Xinerama enabled. Enabling Xinerama causes no problems except this one. The bug is not present in Debian unstable. The new bug of course forces one to use separate X servers when wishing to rotate only one monitor in a set -- a limitation that was not present in prior releases of Ubuntu or other distributions.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
The PPA works partially for me. I get very odd mouse behaviour. I work on a laptop, which has a 'pointing stick' and a touchpad, and I also use an external mouse. The odd thing is: both the stick and the external mouse work as expected, but if I click using the touchpad buttons, my mouse pointer jumps to another position, to the top and left of the original position! This only happens when my second screen is connected, otherwise, it's fine... I do not know if this odd behaviour also happens without the PPA, I will try this when I have some time. -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

The PPA contains the patch that's listed on this bug.

Using Mackenzies' PPA, the bug happened again. All inputs stopped working. The mouse cursor was trapped at random positions near the right side of the left screen (the 2nd screen), quickly switching from one to another. Without inputs and no SSH server running, I had to hard-reboot the computer after waiting 10min for the X server to crash.

According to the Xorg people working with the bug, in Xinerama mode - event coordinates are relative to the primary secreen - Screen 0. But, in the version of Xorg that now is in use with Lucid (1.7.6) event coordinates are unsigned integers. With unsigned integers, negative coordinates can not be represented, thus xorg can not function with screens above or to the left of Screen 0. So, if you can, let your upper-left screen be Screen 0. The xorg people have a patch that seems to be working (simply changing back to signed ints). I hope that this will make it into an updated ubuntu Lucid package soon. -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Release: 10.04 I am using a GeForce 8800GT with dual monitors: First Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 1680x1050 Second Monitor: LG L196WTQ 1440x900 Driver: NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version current) [Recommended] When I open NVIDIA X Server Settings, it shows my Samsung SyncMaster screen on the left and the LG monitor on the right, which is backwards in their position on my desk. So I first set the configuration to Separate X screen for both monitors, then Enable Xinerama and Save to X Configuration File and reboot. At this point, it works fine and I do not experience the issue mentioned in this topic. Next I take and drag the Samsung monitor to the right of the LG monitor as shown in the attached image and set it's X Screen position to Right of. It automatically sets the Position of the LG screen to Absolute +0+0. I save the settings and then reboot. Now they are displayed correctly, but the mouse pointer will not go very far onto the second screen and it glitches on the second screen as experienced by others above. It works fine on the Samsung screen though. I've tried switching to the other Nividia driver listed under my hardware drivers titled: NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 173) and tried rebooting and no luck, exact same behavior. I couldn't find a working solution for this issue and when I went to report the bug, I was going to report it on the nvidia-common package, but found this bug report already. Issues with the Nvidia driver and Xorg have plagued three versions of Ubuntu for me starting with 9.04 and now 10.04, although I don't get the random driver crashes during boot in 10.04 as I did with 9.10, which means it has improved.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
It seems to be(after trying more configurations of monitors inspired by other bug reports), that the mouse bug only happens when the primary screen(screen 0 which is on GPU 0) is located below screen 1. Every single configuration possible from one column, 4 rows, to any combination of 2x2 comes down to the same thing. You can't have GPU0 located below GPU1. If you change the screens physically, or just change the plugs, you can physically put the monitors how you want, just virtually you have to have GPU0 with screen 0 above GPU1. -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

At the time, it did reproduce in Debian unstable, though the bug report here suggests that it currently does not. The freedesktop.org bug report lists an available patch, so it's possible that Debian unstable has applied this patch or their own.

Nice find Daniel. My xorg.conf (attached above) which reproduces the bug does not use the old screen ID syntax, but instead uses the new standard DVI-I-x where x is the videocard port. I will fiddle with the screens and ports in xorg.conf and report back with any possible workarounds. In any case, it's nice to have found the source of the bug.

I have the same problem when Xinerama is enabled on NVidia drivers using 2 nVidia 9600GT display adapters and 4 displays. Two of the displays are pivot rotated and two are not rotated. I'm using ratpoison as window manager so it's not related to window managers. When I disable Xinerama the mouse works OK but I cannot throw applications from display to another. I love Ubuntu, but display system has always been perhaps the weakest links of it. On Ubuntu 9.04 NVidia display driver (or X or Xinerama or XRandr) crashed the X every few days. On Ubuntu 9.10 there were mouse jumping problems and not always possible to move mouse from screen to screen and in the first releases there was mouse visible on all four screens at the same time and now Ubuntu 10.04 has this new problem where it is impossible to move mouse from screen to screen using Xinerama. I know it's still only Beta 2 but because of history of unsolved problems I'm really really afraid that this will never be fixed. -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
I'm declining the lucid nomination and setting importance to medium for the following reasons: * Given that the bug doesn't occur with -nouveau, this seems likely to be a bug in the -nvidia driver itself, but by SRU policy binary driver updates are not permitted, so this does not qualify for an SRU post-release (and there's no time left to fix it pre-release) * There is a functional workaround * The issue does not occur for default configurations Really, I think this bug needs to be communicated upstream to NVIDIA, as it does not seem to be something we can fix in Ubuntu itself. However, just in case I am assigning to tseliot to review it and give additional feedback. ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Alberto Milone (albertomilone) -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
Bryce, what do you mean by functional workaround? I though nouveau driver didnt support multiple cards or am I missing something? The issue does not occur for default configurations... True but with default configuration Gnome uses only one display and with settings (using the gnome tool) I managed it to use only two out of four displays. For some reason X crashed and failed to restart so I switched to NVidia drivers. Too bad there is issue with the Xinerama. In case someone finds a way to use four displays (two cards) in Ubuntu 10.04 properly I'd really like to hear about that. I haven't found a solution so far. I even tried to get libxinerama from Debian Testing (v1.1-3) with no luck - mouse keeps jumping. libxrandr2 seems to be in same version so no luck with that neither. Ubuntu 10.04 Beta 2 release notes says Because of the new alternatives system used for nvidia driver packages, the nvidia installer from NVIDIA's website currently doesn't work so I havent tried NVidia drivers from NVidia's website. -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
Dear Bryce, I understand your reluctance to include in time for lucid. Quite reasonable. However, perhaps you misunderstood the specifics of the problem? Your second and third bullet points seem inaccuratge. On the second: A workaround is generally defined to restore full function. The nouveau alternative does not. All 3D capabilities are unsupported by the nouveau driver. This is of course the meat of any GPU. On the third: Since lucid guides the user to the nvidia binary in it's nicely implemented Hardware Drivers dialogue, I believe novice users would expect the resulting upgrade to the nvidia blob to work with distro defaults. As I and others have detailed, it does not. Unlike some, I agree completely that binary driver bugs have no place in Ubuntu's buglist. But this is an unusual situation; the nv drivers are essentially abandoned. The nouveau drivers aren't quite ready. The nvidia binary works fine in karmic, but doesn't work for the reasons mentioned above in lucid. If it weren't for this last point, I would agree this is a minor bug. But to break new things in the LTS certainly seems visible very suspect for a stable release. Unless a fix is found soon (I'm still looking), I might suggest regressing the default nvidia blob and xinerama libraries in lucid to solve this bug and let users make the choice to upgrade to the newer (broken) version which is presently lucid's default! -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 563100] Re: Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled
Rotating as above using xrandr and the nouveau drivers (as in lucid repository) works fine. But of course the nouveau driver doesn't support 3D or even all the 2D features. And the nvidia driver doesn't support xrandr. So no optimal workaround yet that I can find. -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Same problem here. Also if I try to drag a window from the affected screen, xorg crashes and restarts. -- Mouse movement corrupted with Xinerama enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563100 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
