Title:
  Dead zone on the screen

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  After the latest upgrade to Natty, there're many 'dead zones' in the screen, where the server interprets as the mouse being above the desktop instead of the current window. This happens with both Unity and Classic Desktop. Attached is a screencast showing the behavior when using the mouse middle-click (that in my case triggers  the Rotate Cube Desktop compiz effect).
  Of course, when the mouse is on this wormhole area, it won't interact with the current window's controls or objects, making this one of the most annoying bugs one could encounter.
