I am a noob when it comes down to videodrivers but is seems like although the desktop and backdrop are rendered nicely full screen the items on it seem to be rendered to a smaller field and get clipped when passing the "border". Resizing the desktop to another size and back again seem to solve this issue. I'll paste my temporary workaround here for people with the same problem and the same hardware while awaiting a fix. workaround suitable for: NV34 (64MB) with laptopscreen 1024x768@60 workaround for nouveau bug that cuts off everything on screen beneath a certain invisible horizon resizing (and resizing back again) seems to be the only "fix" without disabling render acceleration workaraound tested (and works) put the code below in a file, make it executable and put it in "startup applications" in your desktop: #!/bin/bash xrandr --output LVDS-1 --mode 800x600 --panning 800x600 xrandr --output LVDS-1 --mode 1024x768 --panning 1024x768 --- ApportVersion: 2.12.7-0ubuntu6 Architecture: i386 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: trusty DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: NVIDIA Corporation NV34M [GeForce FX Go5300 / Go5350] [10de:032c] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Wistron Corp.
