I have installed NVIDIA 340.76. On Nouveau it doesn't happen this way, but Nouveau is a different story. There I have some sort of artefacts, the system is overall very slow, and mouse pointer is blinking.
I don't know if this happened prior to Trusty, I was using card in a discrete mode back then (BIOS setting), and I have disabled Optimus reporting to an operating system. When I disable it, and run in discrete mode now, it works more or less okay, with an exception of random freezes at boot time (normally if it boots it doesn't freeze later), and freezes on for example keyboard actions modifying brightness. However I think this is a different problem, as it only exists if I'm running discrete mode with optimus reporting disabled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1305264 Title: Incorrect display when using monitor on the left on NVIDIA Optimus Card Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When using configuring screen to be placed on the left side Unity behaves incorrectly. The screen on the left monitor is containing duplication of the main screen. This means that when I reach edge of the external display the content contains duplicated copy of main display which is scrolled as I move cursor. The same content is shown on the main display. Additionally making windows full screen makes the window full screen on both displays. This is not the case when the main screen (laptop) is configured to be on the left and external monitor is on the right.
