• Bug#868333: Xorg: rotation of left monitor in dual screen (:0.1) traps

    Package: Xorg
    Version: 1:7.7+19
    Severity: normal


    Firstly this is a true multi screen setup with :0.0 and :0.1 not just a multi monitor setup. When you rotate the left monitor (I use xrandr) you can no longer move the mouse over the left side of the right screen to the left monitor although you can
    easily move the mouse to the right. My suspicion is that the checks for moving the mouse left note that there is a gap between monitors due to the rotated screen now being narrower causing the failure. Note: ratpoison's banish commands are useful for
    troubleshooting this.
