** Description changed: I've been using Ubuntu 14.10 for a while now, and I ended up switching to the FGLRX driver for performance reasons. My laptop is an Acer Aspire 5742G-7353 with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 video chip on it. I have noticed that some applications (So far, I've only seen Blender and Chromium do this) displays a little bit (maybe 10-20 pixels?) to the right when maximized. The drivers that are available from the ATI website worked fine, but I had to use the version from the repos since it no longer works with 14.10. Problem only exists in the repo version. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2225451 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2241392 + + Edit: I have switched to KDE and seen it happen in Blender with kwin + compositing on. The bug disappeared immediately after disabling + compositing.
