Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Occasionally, when I boot or I am using my computer, I am able to move
my mouse pointer off far off of the screen onto a non-existent second
monitor. If I open the display properties, the screen will flash and
only one monitor is shown. If I click the Apply button, then the problem
is fixed. However, the problem can sometimes, but not always, return
when I play a video in Totem. I again have to go to display properties
to fix it.

I've also seen the problem when GDM appears. My screen will have the GDM
background but no other GDM items. I notice that I can move my pointer
far off the screen. The only recourse in this situation is to cut power
and restart since I can't even shutdown or reboot.
