Just to re-open this one for a second - surely this can be worked around.

At the moment i'm running a 1440x900 monitor and a 1024x600 monitor 'stacked'. Could the logic be added to xorg to simply wrap the mouse differently, so that the virtual screen used remains 'vertical' but the mouse jumps up between co-ordinates in reaching the side of a screen, producing the effect of a wide horizontal screen in a vertical virtual desktop?

Does anyone know where the code is that handles this? Would it be an easy add or require major changes to the way Xorg does things?

Sorry - I know this is not a feature request forum, but it does seem a logical workaround.
