Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
After upgrade to Lucid 10.04 the mouse becomes unstable when moved into the monitor using the 2nd gpu. I am able to move windows into that monitor but when the mouse loses control either the keyboard locks or X crashes. I'm running dual GeForce 9400 GT cards and xserver 1.7.6 on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Any suggestions?

I have 3 nvidia 9400 GTs with 6 monitors. After upgrading to 10.04 my mouse is flickering uncontrollably if I try to move it into one of my upper monitors. (my upper row monitors are running off the screen 1 port of each device)
Interestingly I find if I disable Xinerama in the xorg.conf then the mouse behaves (but of course you can't drag windows between monitors)
It just looks to me like the mouse issue may be somehow related to xinerama
