Adam Groszer, as per http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=5212854&swLangOid=8&swEnvOid=4158 an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (F.62). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect): sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not. 3) Please mark this report Status New. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-f.62 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu.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/1546837 Title: fglrx, vlc video play crops picture Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: will attach a screenshot ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: xorg 1:7.7+7ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-27.32-generic 4.2.8-ckt1 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-27-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Thu Feb 18 03:08:27 2016 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-05-17 (1006 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130423.1) SourcePackage: xorg UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) --- ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,bailer,detection,composite,opengl,compiztoolbox,decor,gnomecompat,grid,mousepoll,regex,vpswitch,wall,resize,imgpng,place,unitymtgrabhandles,animation,snap,move,session,fade,expo,workarounds,ezoom,scale,unityshell] CompositorRunning: None DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: wily DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: fglrx-updates-core, 15.201, 4.2.0-25-generic, x86_64: installed fglrx-updates-core, 15.201, 4.2.0-27-generic, x86_64: installed virtualbox, 5.0.14, 4.2.0-25-generic, x86_64: installed virtualbox, 5.0.14, 4.2.0-27-generic, x86_64: installed ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
