Bug 715

Summary: In multimonitor (linux xinerama) setups the xrel (and possibly yrel) values in mouse motion events are skewed.
Product: SDL Reporter: Richard Connon <richard.connon>
Component: eventsAssignee: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: major    
Priority: P2 Keywords: target-1.2.14
Version: HG 1.2   
Hardware: x86   
OS: Linux   

Description Richard Connon 2009-03-15 03:34:33 UTC 
Using xinerama for a multimonitor setup in linux the xrel and yrel values in mouse motion events are skewed by the combined resolution of any monitors left of (for xrel) or above (for yrel) the main screen.

Tagging this bug with "target-1.2.14" so we can try to resolve it for SDL 1.2.14.

Please note that we may choose to resolve it as WONTFIX. This tag is largely so we have a comprehensive wishlist of bugs to examine for 1.2.14 (and so we can close bugs that we'll never fix, rather than have them live forever in Bugzilla).

I tried to reproduce this and I didn't have any problems with the latest snapshot:
http://www.libsdl.org/tmp/SDL-1.2.zip

Can you give me specific details on your Xinerama configuration and the program you were seeing this problem in?

If you can reproduce it with the programs in the SDL test folder, that would be ideal.

Thanks!

No response from the customer, I'm closing this for now.  Please reopen this as a 1.3 bug if it's an issue there.
