I posted it. Fixing it would take a major rewrite of Xorg, so the workaround is the best option for those who have this issue. I just moved the position of my monitor to fix my mouse issue. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63900

The Laptop screen has a hardware resolution of 1366x768, the external monitor a hardware resolution of 1920x1080. If I set up the second monitor using xrandr --output HDMI-0 --off xrandr --output LVDS --auto xrandr --output HDMI-0 --auto --right-of LVDS (or the kde gui, the effects are equal) I expect 1) the left 1366x768 area to be on the laptop screen, and 2) the right 1920x768 area to be on the big monitor. But I observe: 1) happens as expected 2) happens almost. instead, the 2 rightmost pixels on the laptop monitor are repeated on the left border of the big monitor(filled with black to the bottom), in turn the two rightmost columns of the virtual display area are not visible on any monitor at all. If I switch the laptop monitor resolution to 1280x720, this effect does not occur, and - except for the then blurred laptop screen - everything works as expected. A screenshot shows the whole virtual desktop correctly.
