Created attachment 1307095 [details]
screencast of bug with journalctl -f

Description of problem:
With graphics card Quadro NVS 450 with SW rendering mouse stops working after hitting bottom or right screen edge. Also switching applications stops working correctly - it only switches between 2 last focused applications. Also command journalctl -f streams repeatedly those error messages:
gnome-shell[16885]: gdk_window_get_screen: assertion 'GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
gnome-shell[16885]: gdk_screen_get_root_window: assertion 'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed
gnome-shell[16885]: gdk_device_get_state: assertion 'GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-3.22.3-17.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. move mouse cursor to bottom or right screen edge

Actual results:
mouse stops working (system does not react on mouse events), switching applications doesn't work correctly, errors in journalctl -f

Expected results:
mouse is working correctly, switching applications works correctly, no errors in journalctl -f

Additional info:
$ lspci -nn | grep -i vga
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation G98 [Quadro NVS 450] [10de:06fa] (rev a1)
$ glxinfo | grep render
...
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.9, 128 bits)

Tested in gnome classic. When I open activities overview via super key and click with left mouse button, it closes activities overview and opens applications menu in left bottom corner of the screen. Second click closes the menu. Otherwise mouse is not working.

Tested in the third user profile, where using SW rendering is a bug according to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1262873
