Hi,

I have similar problem (input action on different place than the pointer) on different circunstances:

Input: Mouse or Stylet used on garphic tablet.
Configuration : Dual screen on the right side of the main screen (on windows)
Consequence: Input happens on the right of the cursor

I haven't measured the distance in pixels between input and cursor, but it seems to have a relation with the dual screen resolution.

Inkscape seems to have trouble with dual screen : disabling it enables me to use the graphic tablet without trouble.

Hope it helps.
Tibo

Perhaps it's worth making it clear that at least one person (me) has
used several different versions of Inkscape under Windows XP without
seeing the problem that you describe, and I'd never heard of such a
problem before.
