Hi,

I have never had an issue with the top left hot corner, but I did have
as you described have issues with popping up the bottom notification
area using a mouse on both desktops and laptops.

Quick fix for this I use is to turn off 'vblank'. Create a file in your
HOME folder called .drirc and insert the text below.

<driconf>
    <device screen="0" driver="dri2">
        <application name="Default">
            <option name="vblank_mode" value="0" />
        </application>
    </device>
</driconf>

All seems to get a little easier with the notification area after.

Regards

Phil
