Maybe somebody knows a reasonable method of convincing a mouse that a screen has different dimensions than defaults?
Does `xinput` list a translation matrix property for your device ? I use this for a touchscreen secondary display, your situation sounds vaguely similar.
xinput in this particular case reports the following:
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ USB OPTICAL MOUSE id=10 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad id=13 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Asus EeePC extra buttons id=11 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
xrandr will rescale a screen output but this is only mildly useful due to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39949 as mentioned by Felix.
