Lukasz Piepiora, any change with the latest version of the nvidia driver
346.47?

** Tags added: vivid

** Description changed:

  When using configuring screen to be placed on the left side Unity
  behaves incorrectly. The screen on the left monitor is containing
  duplication of the main screen. This means that when I reach edge of the
  external display the content contains duplicated copy of main display
  which is scrolled as I move cursor. The same content is shown on the
  main display.
- 
- Additionally making windows full screen makes the window full screen on
- both displays.
- 
- This is not the case when the main screen (laptop) is configured to be
- on the left and external monitor is on the right.
