[Python-apps-team] Bug#678409: xpra: mouse position out of sync

[Hramrach]

Package: xpra
Version: 0.3.2+dfsg-1
Severity: normal


Hello,

I tried running firefox in xpra, and I could not click most UI elements.

Examining closely I found that the mouse pointer is way more to the right
(like 50~100px) than what xpra thinks.

Minimizing the firefox window and restoring seems to fix the issue.

However, mouse is heavily used in X. Inability to rely on cursor
position being what it appears to be makes the clients in xpra kind of
hard to use.

Thanks

Michal
