I think that the upstream bug is not correct here. The problem is not with panning; the problem is with scaling and the mouse behavior.
I have xserver-xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu6 (X.Org X Server 1.14.5), and if I issue xrandr --output LVDS1 --scale 2x2 the screen scales correctly, but then the mouse is restricted to the (original 1x1 viewport) upper left quarter of the screen, making the scaling completely unuseful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883319 Title: xrandr --scale restricts area in which mouse moves To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/883319/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
