Title:
Dell Inspiron 8200 Nvidia proprietary driver causes display errors
(vertical lines on the right, and mirror effect on the
bottom)[Workaround Available]
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Using nvidia proprietary driver on a Dell Inspiron 8200 with a Samsung
1600x1200 screen, the desktop is only shown on about the top left 4/5
of the screen, with multicolor vertical lines on the right and a
mirror of the top part of the desktop at the bottom of the screen. The
desktop is shown in full, only it's shrinked to 4/5 of its size.
Using the free nv driver, everything is ok except I'd be happy if it
was snappier :)
