** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: nvidia-glx-180
  
  I am running 32-bit Jaunty on a Dell XPS M1710 laptop with an NVIDIA
  GeForge Go 7900 GS. Compiz is ON. I have two screens with different
  vertical resolutions (1920x1200 and 1920x1080). When I enable NVIDIA
  TwinView, the extra space at the bottom of the larger screen is cut off
  and shows black.
  
  THIS IS A REGRESSION. In previous versions of Ubuntu, the whole screen
  was usable.
  
  Some additional notes:
  
  - Nothing but black ever displays in the extra section, except the cursor, which shows up normally.
  - Maximized windows fill the _usable_ space (i.e., they do NOT extend into the black section).
  - Right-clicking in the black section _does_ bring up a context menu, but only the part that is above the black section is visible.
