Bug Description
I'm using Kubuntu 6.06 LTS and an ATI Radeon 9550 graphics card in dual head mode using the 'ati' xorg driver. My mouse cursor doesn't work properly on the right hand screen, I can click things ok, but the cursor itself 'sticks'. Nothing I do on screen 2 will change the cursor, but if move it over to screen 1 it will change to a hand over hyperlinks and a resize icon over window borders etc as you'd expect. If I move the mouse from the left (1) to the right (2) screen going over a window border in the process the cursor ends up on screen 2 'stuck' as a resize cursor, even the click position seems to be in the middle as it is with the resize. Nothing I do on screen 2 will change it back to a pointer, but if I move the cursor back to screen 1 it immediately reverts back to normal behaviour on that screen. Sorry I can't think how describe it much better than that, but I'm willing to answer questions.
I've switched to using the fglrx driver and the problem has gone away so I'm assuming it's something to do with the 'ati' xorg driver.
