I'm using the newrez script on my netbook.

This script seems to draw an image to display with a wider resolution and then resides it to make it fit to my screen using Xrandr. This way i can have a 1280768 resolution on my 1024600 screen.

BUT my mouse won't move further than the virtual 1024600 boundary on my newly 1280768 displayed desktop.

From Version 0.8 of newrez you can run: newrez-v

From the newrez website:

When you unpack this version, you will also get "newrez-v" which is an entirely different approach. For those who cannot run newrez due to driver issues, or because the latest Xrandr package traps the mouse in a small rectangle (like my system), here is a solution while we wait for these things to get fixed!

  • Thank you for the answer pl1nk, i tried the newrez-v and now I don't have any boundary issue since my cursor won't move xD, I can still click, use the mousewheel but not move. :3 any idea on how to fix it without loging out ? :)

  • @Shaihuld: Well without login out (speculations) try to change your resolution to default resolution, check for running pids of newrez..
