I applied the patch from Chris Wilson to xserver-xorg-core 2:1.16.0-1ubuntu1 and find that my mousepointer now travels to the monitor's edge when using scale with xrandr.
It appears that the package's .diff.gz has some changes (why isn't that a quilt patch?) in the affected file, a patch that applies to the source package (on top of all the other patches) is attached. ** Attachment added: "Chris Wilson's patch modified for Ubuntu package" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/883319/+attachment/4241776/+files/fd_bug_39949_randr_scaling -- 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
