Title:
  July 7th earning morning update threw display completely off

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I ran the July 7 update at about 1AM CST last night, and it totally
  threw my monitor out of calibration. The alignment was shifted to the
  left so far that the left panel became invisible. The fonts were made
  larger.

  I had to mess with the monitors setting to even get my left panel back
  to check for further updates today, but my entire left panel is
  bunching up on itself on the top, so that the top application icons in
  are all on top of each other.

  I hope I am reporting this the proper way, but your system for
  reporting bugs is very confusing. I am surprised I even got this far,
  as it is not very intuitive how to do bug reports these days. :(

  BTW, this is the second time I have had an update screw up my computer
  in the last month. I'm starting to lose faith in the security of these
  security updates, as only a hacker would probably know how to get
  through all the submission hurdles to make these kind of changes.

  Also, it might help to know that I am using gnome metacity, so this
  may be limited to those of us using that. The default was slow as
  molasses on my old computer and the application choice on the their
  generic panel were not very intuitive, so I had to switch back to
  gnome.

  So I am not going to update my other computer till this is resolved.
  It was clearly an update issue, as it was working fine till I ran the
  update and restarted my computer.  My apologies if this is a duplicate
  report, but I did not see it on the list of recent bug reports. I'm
  just doing the best I can keeping my system bug free. Cheers.

  The attached pic is what my screen looks like AFTER fiddling with the
  monitor settings to get the panel far enough to the right that I could
  see and use it, but after the update it was all very much to the left
  and much larger.
