12.04 "Mouse stops" in between dual monitors

[psychobyte]

Hi,

I didn't have this issue w/ 11.10 but, when I'm gliding my mouse between dual monitors the mouse "stops" until I really force it to move into the second monitor. How do I get rid of that?

Thanks.

Ok,

think I found it.

In compizconfig settings manager > Ubuntu Unity Plugin >> Experimental Tab,
Setting the "Edge Stop Velocity" to 1, seems to fix it.

The other way is under Settings|Displays, then turn Off the Sticky edges option.

Good call on In compizconfig settings manager > Ubuntu Unity Plugin >> Experimental Tab. I set it from 65 to 10, and it works great for me now. Thanks for the tip.

"compizconfig settings manager > Ubuntu Unity Plugin >> Experimental Tab"

That did it for me too. Thanks.

It will doubtless extend the life of my mouse, since I'll stop beating it to death now.

+1 +1 THANK YOU!


I do alot of back and forth work from Monitor to Monitor, my wrist has been hurting since the upgrade!

ok, so using the compizconfig settings under experimental, i found a new setting "Launcher Monitors", because my pausing between monitors was because the Launcher was trying to be shown. i set this to "Primary Desktop" and now there is no pausing/stopping between monitors.

I tried "Launcher Capture Mouse" which is at the bottom of that same experimental tab in CompizConfig Settings manager, and that worked as well. apparently Ubuntu still behaves as if a launcher was present in that monitor, which it isn't, at least in my case.

Same problem here, I solved going to the compiz setting manager (ccsm), unity plugin, and experimental tab.

At the bottom I set the "Launcher Monitors" to "Primary Desktop" and one line below I unchecked the "Launcher Capture Mouse" option.

That was it, now it works great.
