Today there was an update for the unity package. In the change log it mentioned something about "border detect" so I thought it may be a fix. No way. Also, I had unity installed from the "unity revamped ppa" to allow permanent menus in the unity bar and that also got broken since the official unity packages doesn't allow that option.
If it works for any of you please tell me here. Otherwise I suppose we'll have to wait until the next unity or nvidia update.
