Description Matthias Clasen 2013-10-16 15:43:01 UTC 
(from Montreal summit session)

The mouse cursor is placed in the wrong place on ungrab

After login we got problems where the grab doesn't work

This would be a spice issue. Marc-Andre, correct me if I'm wrong here.

Marc-Andre?
Comment 3 Marc-Andre Lureau 2014-10-16 22:16:28 UTC 
Sorry, I don't parse this. Do you mean that on ungrab the "client" cursor ends up in a different place than the "server/drawn" cursor? That would be a simple enhancement bug to spice-gtk.  The second point seems unrelated, and could use some reproducer steps.

Yes, IIRC.

Cool. I'll file there.

That was an year ago and IIRC Boxes on mccanns system where this was observed, wasn't the latest even at that time. So I think we can ignore that part as I haven't seen this issue ever since nor it has been reported by anyone else.
