Cursor won't move off screen 1
Greetings-
Summary: After today's apt-get dist-upgrade, my mouse cursor won't move
back from the right screen (screen 1) to screen 0.
Detail: this is debian testing, kernel 2.6.24, using the radeon drivers
for a two-headed setup. Login and the original cursor are on screen 0.
After moving the cursor to screen 1, it will no longer move back to
screen 0; pushing it to the left of screen 1 just leaves it at the left
there.
This worked fine as of last week using the same xorg.conf, pasted below
for reference.
Window manager: metacity
Environment: Gnome 2.22.3
xorg.conf:
# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool,
using

# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
