I just built my desk, and for the first time, i'm using monitor spanning instead of display mirroring...

my external display is to the left of my powerbook. and i would like to have my mouse go to the left to show up on the external display... instead, i have to move my mouse to the right, for it to show up on a display to the left. get what i mean? is there a way to switch this around so my cursor moves seamlessly between the two displays?

thanks

I don't have an external, but from what I learned while messing @ at the Apple Store, you can change the display settings in the display system pref. You can change the primary display to be on the right (so your menu bar is on the right monitor and you'd mouse left to go left). I say just play around in that pref til you figure it out.
