 Hi there,

 I have recently been using Scummvm (latest GIT code build) on WAYLAND, the
 new graphics server currently becoming the default on many GNU/Linux
 distros by now.

 The problem is that the mouse cursor in fullscreen mode, when a game
 doesn't fill the entire screen area, is sticky around the edges.
 That happens because the internal cursor position goes beyond the game
 area, which shouldn't happen.
 Scummvm uses SDL_WarpMouseInWindow() to avoid this, which seems to be non-
 working on WAYLAND, hence the problem happens.

 There's also a thread on SDL2 development repository to discuss this
 Scummvm issue, and SDL2 WAYLAND backend devs apparently think that
 SDL_WarpMouseInWindow() shouldn't be used:
