[Bug 327428] Re: mouse pointer no longer has 1 pixel precision

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package xserver-xorg-input-synaptics -
1.2.2-2ubuntu7

---------------
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (1.2.2-2ubuntu7) natty; urgency=low

  * Add 116_resolution_detect_option.patch: Provide an option to prevent
    synaptics from communicating the touchpad size to the xserver.  This
    can be used to solve problems where differences in touchpad and screen
    dimensions cause the mouse pointer to skip pixels when moving.

Title:
  mouse pointer no longer has 1 pixel precision

Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

After upgrading to the latest X server and all of the accompanying packages (version 0.99.3-2ubuntu2 for xserver-xorg-input-synaptics) there are certain rows and columns of pixels that I cannot move my mouse to.  The unreachable rows and columns are independent of anything else including where my mouse has been, what is being displayed there, and they are even consistent after reboots.

I am running the 2.6.28-6 amd64 kernel on the latest jaunty.
