[Bug 1417651] [NEW] Lenovo W520: display for one screen stretched over both when docked

 

Public bug reported:

When using the proprietary Nvidia drivers, the output from one window is
often stretched to cover both by Unity.  Other window managers don't
have this problem, and if you manually configure the display output
locations and sizes in ccsm, Unity displays it correctly.  One thing
that I noticed is that the standard xrandr-based Displays panel in
System Settings shows both outputs, but nvidia-settings shows only the
external monitor.
