Well, what a coincidence, I just started to work on that on monday (without
reading this thread as I need this for a project of mine)... I should have a
patch ready tomorrow (or on Friday, depending on my free time :-) ).
What I planned to do is to add a function called 'XF86VidModeLockViewPort'
that would enable one to prevent the viewport to scroll when the mouse it at
the border of the screen (if the parameter is True, if False, let the
scrolling happen).
