Public bug reported:
This bug is reproducible with the following changes to the default
Ubuntu configuration with a multi monitor (not mirrored) setup:
System Settings >> Appearance >> (tab) Behaviour >> Auto Hide Launcher &
Reveal sensitivity set to high.
Upon this change the mouse becomes effectively trapped from traversing
between monitors and gets 'stuck' to the side of one screen no matter
how fast i try to move it to the next screen.
My particular setup is an ATI radeon HD 5850 with an eyefinity setup with three
monitors in a horizontal setup.
My mouse is a Razer Lachesis (high dpi) laser mouse (incase this is a
contributing factor??) set to a relatively low speed.
Both left and right traversal is affected.
The bug is remedied by setting Auto Hide launcher off and setting
sensitivity back to its default.
