Comment 0 for bug 881046

When I go for a virtual monitor by issuing command "xrandr --output LVDS1 --fb 1600x1200 --panning 1600x1200" on a monitor working at resolution 1024x768 (as I did before upgrading from Ubuntu 11.04 to Ubuntu 11.10), the WM bars on top and left side of the screen (in Unity) look like extending to the new area, but I cannot move the pointer to the new extra area and so I cannot pan. As far as I understood by reading around, this *could* be a bug in package "xorg-server" rather than in "xrandr" and *could* be related to the boundaries set for cursor position.
