This is expected behaviour in xorg and not only since Karmic. What do you expect the cursor to do when moving in and out of that area not covered by either of the monitors? One camp of users wants it to move around freely while the other camp wants the cursor to strictly stay within the visible screens. I'm from the second camp, you seem to be from the first. I think this may even be configurable. I looked around quite a bit (I was sure to have a bug report to the opposite effect some time ago), yet found nothing.
I think this report should be closed with status invalid. -- Cursor can move off-screen when dual-monitors do not form rectangular area https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/389519 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel 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
