Title:
  Xorg crash with floating evdev mouse pointer

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Xorg crashes on my system when I configure an InputDevice with a floating 
mouse, since I'm trying to create a multiseat system (using 2 videocards, 2 
mice, 2 keyboards in one PC, see http://linuxgazette.net/124/smith.html ). A 
floating keyboard in an InputDevice section works as a charm and isolates the 
keyboard to the specified 'seat'. When the "Floating" option is set to "false" 
both mouses move the cursor in both seats.
  When "Floating" option is set to "true" i get a segfault in positionSprite of 
../../dix/getevents.c:951, I'll attach the full backtrace.
