[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1073724] Re: Pointer barriers have gaps along the edge of the screen

Um, as mentioned, Tim's patch actually breaks things as well. And the bug isn't entirely fixed either, just made less noticeable. This is a dup of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48008 ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #48008 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?i

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1079953] Re: Main Menu Editor alacarte is Completely Broken in xubuntu 12.10
