I have the same bug in a recent build from xenial. I tried downgrading
xorg to precise, no difference, mouse still hits the wall when output to
internal monitor is turned off. If both monitors are turned on, the
problem does not occur. But I like to conserve my laptop screen when I
am connected
sorry, the patch that was added to precise is actually upstream and
included in the server that trusty has, but it broke again for some
reason, and that's why a new bugreport makes sense

Yes, unfortunately it just removes my 2nd monitor, and only pans on the

don't know how to disable it, so I have to restart every time it doesn't

No it wasn't. I saw this issue in 13.10, 14.04, 14.10, 15.04, and now

You just made me check, and the patch that fixed this in 12.04 is

This is affecting me with a hDPI primary display (Dell m3800) when adding an

Same problem on Debian 8.
Simple solution, like in comment nr 115, but it is much better to use
--scale-from instead of --scale. For example:
xrandr --output LVDS1 --fb 1920x1200 --panning 1920x1200 --scale-from 1920x1200
To switch back, set your normal resolution, for example:
xrandr --output

This fixes the scaling behaviour on an external monitor and my cursor is

I would suggest a workaroung: use --scale together with --panning
For example, if I have 1366x768 screen and I would like to scale it up to
1920x1080, I would use
xrandr --output LVDS1 --panning 1920x1080 --scale 1.406x1.406
1.406 = 1920/1366 or, similarly 1080/768

Is it just me or does the --scale option ignore the cursor so that the
