Can you provide a bug # (with a full backtrace if possible)? I'm
putting a priority on following up on xserver segfaults.
(Actually there are no public X crash bugs open against natty at the
moment, so I wonder that what you're seeing is not actually an xserver
segfault. Regardless, it should be investigated.)

The first half of that could be unity's handling of multi-head, which I
agree seems like it needs more QA.
The second half, regarding blank spaces where the mouse gets lost, is a
long standing known X.org issue (bug #389519). (There's been a patch
proposed but it's not upstream yet.)
