The bug is here again. I'm using Ubuntu jammy 22.04 with xserver-xorg 1:7.7+23ubuntu2 and xserver-xorg-core 2:21.1.3-2ubuntu2.5. I think it's xorg 21.1, it seems there was a version change in xorg.
I have three monitors, two 4k and one old 1280x1024. Some time ago I used it with scale 2x2 and it was useful for chats, follow logs, etc. But now the mouse gets confined in a quarter of the screen :( -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1580123 Title: xrandr --scale (again) confines mouse to native solution Status in X.Org X server: Fix Released Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This might be a regression where the original issue is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/883319 It can be easily reproduced by doing something like: xrandr --output DP1 --scale 1.25x1.25 The mouse will be still constrained to the native solution (aka you can't move the mouse outside a box of whatever DP1 had as resolution before. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Release: 16.04 $ xrandr --version xrandr program version 1.5.0 Server reports RandR version 1.5 $ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-core: Installed: 2:1.18.3-1ubuntu2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/1580123/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
