Mouse cursor disappears in left ~10 pixel column of right monitor in dual head

[Bryce Harrington]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

The mouse cursor disappears when I move the pointer within 10 pixels or so of the left edge of my right monitor.

This is a regression since upgrade from Lucid to Maverick.

I'll re-test after upgrading to natty.

I have exactly the same issue on a fresh Natty install (with all updates including the recent ATI driver update). The mouse pointer only disappears near the left edge of the right-hand monitor of my dual-head setup.

No longer happening in precise.
