Hello,
I've currently got Ubuntu 9.04 installed on a laptop with a 15" screen (16:10) with an external 17" monitor (5:4) attached.
Currently (and this is what it should be) I have the laptop screen set to 1280x800 and the monitor at 1280x1024.
The problem I have is that this make a 'dead area' below the laptop screen, where the mouse pointer can go which is not really helpful if I need to reach for the corner of a window, or anything at the bottom of the screen.
Is there any way in which I can set up the 2 displays to have this resolution but block the mouse from flying off the screen in 'no-man's land'?
Thanks for the attention,
Dale
