Bug Description

Excuse me if this has been answered/fixed but could not find this paticular issue. I'll be brief as possible.

3 screens in this order: [scr2][scr0][scr1] with Xinerama configured.

1st I see the unity bar on all 3 screens.

When I move my mouse between screens below is the order my mouse will show up.

I can go back and forth from [scr0] to [scr1] ([scr0]<->[scr1)
but when I go from [scr0] to [scr2] it jumps to [scr1]

Below is what happens when I move my mouse.

[scr0]->[scr1]->[scr0]->[scr2]->[scr1] (it jumps across [scr0]

This is how my xorg.conf is;
Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier "Layout0"
    Screen 0 "Screen0" RightOf "Screen2"
    Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0"
    Screen 2 "Screen2" 0 0
    InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
    InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
    Option "Xinerama" "1"
EndSection

But the NVIDIA control panel gives absolute settings with [scr2] being +0+0 and [scr0] being +1920+0... etc..

Hope this helps.
