I think this problem is more generic. I have an ATI x1400 using the radeon driver on Ubuntu Karmic and I see the same problem. Right screen is laptop 1920x1200. Left screen is 1280x1024 LCD. I have the pointer issue, but also the window manager places desktop icons off screen. If I place the screens so that they join at the top corner I can't see icons (and desktop applets) that are at the bottom. Vice versa if I join the screens at the bottom corner. The WM thinks I have a 1280x1200 desktop with a 1280x1024 fixed view. Further, if I unplug the external display, the WM continues to operate as if the display was attached and new applications are frequently launched on that display and I have no access to them. I see my comment here is the same as Necrathex. I believe the original report here is a symptom of a larger problem. Fix that larger issue and alot of these symptoms will go away. Hopefully this problem can be addressed for the next version of Ubuntu. I have yet to see any of the bugs I have filed in the last few years to be addressed.
