Gnome desktop: mouse suddenly won't move to left screen
I'm sure this is something simple, but on my gnome desktop which uses an
ATI dual-output card for a dual-screen layout, I suddenly can't move the
mouse off the right-side screen. The left side is recognized by the
resolution switcher, and displays fine, but there's no way (that I can
see) to actually use the real estate. To my knowledge I have done nothing
to make that happen. Here's my xorg.conf (below).
System is running debian testing, Gnome 2.22.3, kernel 2.6.24.
Thanks for *any* advice-
Andy
