@Alejandro: The confusion is my fault, in not keeping which was which organized in my brain while replying. Sorry, when I posted it on OIDK, it was because - though I had gotten the mouse issue fixed - Skype would crash.

I patched other things as I found them, but the typo was causing it to crash with Skype and some other programs. The typo had nothing to do with the mouse being stuck, I think that was one of the math issues. The biggest problem is that I didn't take notes. Honestly, as selfish as it sounds, I just wanted to fix my own system. I was so completely fed up with it freezing on me at least once every day, and none of the other distros seemed to do what I needed and work stably with my triple-head setup. I even contemplated either dropping one monitor or switching to Windows until a fix was made. I had never done it with the intent to put the fixes out in public, but it worked on two other machines with my employees, so I put it up. If others use it and it works, great. If not, here's hoping an official fix is somewhere around the corner soon.
