Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * In short, the cursor can't move beyond one screen when a server is
  running multiple X screens. The bug has been fixed upstream.

   * The impact of this bug is medium/high and after discussing it with
  a member of the Ubuntu Desktop Team it was agreed that we should land
  this fix into quantal-proposed.

   * The upload will fix this bug by working around scaling issues
  during WarpPointer.

  [Regression Potential]

   * There is the possiblity the cursor could get stuck on the second
  screen
