[Bug 876773] [NEW] screen corruption after changing twinview monitor arrangement

 

Public bug reported:

with nvidia-current-updates driver, changing the monitor results in
screen corruption after changing the way the 2 monitors are arranged
next to each other (in nvidia-settings). Cursor redraws, so does
launcher on the side, and sometimes top bar redraws, but nothing else
redraws. sometimes cursor has noise in a small square over it.
