Public bug reported:

Recent upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 (from 14.04) on AMD64, with Ubuntu-Studio
Graphics card = NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660Ti, with driver 367.67, and dual monitors
Just updated to calibre 2.72.0 (but problem occurred with previous version (?) of calibre, which was working under Ubuntu 14.04.

Problem: calibre starts, with all items shown, but with absurdly wide
display width -- at least 10 or 12 screen widths.  Vertical size of
display is normal. Nor can I grab the side of the display window, and
bring it back to normal width.

Following advice under bug #1562291, I've tried completely removing
calibre installation and ~/.config/calibre -- to no avail: fresh
installation behaves same way.

Problem seems clearly to have to do with X-display settings or NVIDIA
driver; calibre 2.72 under Ubuntu 16.04 on another machine with generic
VGA works fine.

I've been systematically checking out all my applications since
upgrading to 16.04, and this is, so far, the only one with such a
malfunction.
