Comment 8 for bug 990032

I'm not sure if this is a bug, rather than a setting being set too high by default. The intuitive behaviour would be for the user to move across from screen to screen. Setting the default stop velocity at 65 is fairly high. Something in the 10-20 range seems to feel more in line with natural expectation.

There's a preference that you can edit to "adjust" (notice I didn't say fix) this in gconf-editor, via: http://askubuntu.com/a/109744
