Bug Description

Using ubuntu 10.10, fglrx and xinerama. Installed xserver-xorg-core and xserver-common from maverick-proposed because of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/xorg-server/+bug/650539.

The cursor acts weird in some programs on the external monitor. Specifically, I've noticed the behavior in the android emulator and in Adobe Digital Edition running under wine. When I move the program to the main monitor the cursor appears fine. The cursor is supposed to turn into a custom/special black cursor, which is I think is related to the problem.

When I tried to take a screen-shoot to illustrate, the cursor appeared fine on the screenshot. Took a picture using my cellphone to illustrate the problem.

Tried to fix the problem by turning of HWCursor, but it did not appear to help.
