Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

1) Press Alt+Space to open context menu for any window.
2) Select Resize.
3) Press Right several times, then Left several times
4) Press Down several times, then press Up several times
5) Press Left several times, then press Right several times
6) Pres Up several times, then press Down several times
7) Repeat steps 3 to 6 several times
Resizing becomes completely buggy. Cursor becomes far away from any edge of a window. Width and height of window resizes in buggy way, window jumps, etc...

A good example of keyboard resizing is in MsWindows. Only right and down edge of window can be moved. And also Shift and Alt modificators keys can be used.

Please fix this!

I'm using Ubuntu 10.10.

Hey LexRiver,

Hi, have you had a chance to test if this bug is still present in natty?

If it does (and if you're the original reporter), please boot into natty
and run the command:

  apport-collect <bug-number>

which will update the bug with fresh logs and tag the bug as affecting
natty. (It is best to run this right after reproducing the problem.)
