Public bug reported:

CID: 201307-14038 Dell Vostro 5470

With the proprietary nvidia-331 (331.113-0ubuntu0.0.4 ) driver, the external monitor does not work as expected in extended mode. It looks like it's splitted and shifted.
09:00.0 3D controller [0302]: NVIDIA Corporation GK208M [GeForce GT 740M] [10de:1292] (rev a1)

Steps:
1. Install 14.04.1 + updated + nvidia driver
2. Connect an external monitor to it.

Expected result:
* External monitor should work in every mode.

Actual result:
* It's mis-aligned in extended mode

This issue does not exist with the -source driver.
