Today i upgraded from ATI Catalyst 11.4 beta to 11.5. When i move my mouse to the bottom right corner of the screen the system becomes unresponsive for ~1 second. Everywhere else is fine.
I have no idea what might cause this issue. Thanks for help!
Update:
Catalyst 11.6 did not fix that bug. The system still freezes for ~1 second when the mouse cursor is moved to the bottom right corner of the screen.
Update 2:
Finally Catalyst 11.7 is released. Did it fix the bug? No, it's still present. One "workaround" (i won't call it fix, because it has side effects) is to enable the SWCursor in the xorg.conf which causes some flickering of the cursor but the system wont freeze anymore.
Summary:
- Catalyst 11.4: works
- Catalyst 11.5: freeze when moving mouse to bottom right corner of screen
- Catalyst 11.6: freeze when moving mouse to bottom right corner of screen
- Catalyst 11.7: freeze when moving mouse to bottom right corner of screen
- Catalyst 11.8: works again 🙂
Workaround:
add
Option "SWCursor" "true"
to xorg.conf

The newly released ATI Catalyst 11.8 finally fixes the bug!
