[Bug 1310014] Re: Black Borders

 

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1292830 ***

Constantly Black borders and overlays no matter how I reset or reinstall
on my Dell E7440 Laptop. Let me know if I can provide logs that will
help. I installed the xorg edgers to try to get multiple monitors to
work when docked and now have permanent back borders but window
operation is better than before the edgers install for the Intel driver.
In fact many things work much better with the edgers xorg and an updated
kernel such as 3.17 or 3.18 but the black borders persist even after a
Unity reinstall / reboot.
