Kalsan, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

The screen is divided on about 1/3 horizontally, as shown in the picture. At that point of the screen, the right edge ends and the next pixel is the left edge. To move the mouse from right to left, I have to go out to the right of the physical screen and the mouse will pop back in from the left. Same thing with lightdm. The proprietary driver is causing much trouble too, but different nature. IMPORTANT: Out of the box, everything works perfectly with free driver. When installing the updates, troubles start.
