Originally created by @n0toose on GitHub (May 24, 2020).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/690

Operating Systems

Server: Debian Sid [Desktop environment: GNOME]

Client: Gentoo Linux (amd64 17.1) [Desktop environment: i3]

Barrier Version

2.3.2

Steps to reproduce bug

Maximize window in GNOME or go full screen in any window in i3.
Moving the mouse between screens is now impossible.

Other info

When did the problem start to occur? See "Steps to reproduce bug"
Is there a way to work around it? No, unless if you choose to undo the actions described in 1
Does this bug prevent you from using Barrier entirely? No. (I find the bug a deal-breaker which renders Barrier inconvenient to use, however.)

Since the bug isn't always reproducible, in the case of i3, I was using the kitty terminal I was using the GNOME Terminal.

For the record, my setup has changed since I made the issue report. Therefore, I won't be able to help any further by reproducing the issue.
