** Description changed:

  While using the nvidia proprietary drivers in 14.04 - 16.04, my Dell XPS
  L501X resumes from suspend, but displays wide black borders around all
  windows with close/minimize/maximize buttons blacked out as per attached
  screenshot. It occurs inconsistently, as it doesn't happen every time
  the computer resumes.
  
  Also there seems to be certain amount of performance degradation as if
  the graphics driver was running at half-strength. The "nVidia X Server
  Settings" app suggests its in maximum performance mode.
