dual screen setup: contents of both screens are shifted right by one pixel

Whoever assigned this to fglrx-installer: I don't think this is related in any way to fglrx.

I just switched to open source "radeon" driver. That got me rid of some other weird stuff (a 'ghost mouse cursor' in the left screen, when the real one was in the right one, and an area along the right border of the left screen where the cursor simply vanished)

But the problem descibed in this bug is the same with driver 'radeon'. So it's either an ati hardware thing or related to gnome/xserver/...

Thanks for the update, didgethesky. Assigning to -ati driver.

I'm sorry, I missed that it was present with /both/ drivers. Assigning to xorg instead.

Can you please execute the following command, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal:

apport-collect 472716

This will help us to find and resolve the problem. Bear in mind that you may need to install the python-launchpadlib package from the universe repository. Additionally, when prompted to give apport-collect permissions for Launchpad you will need to give it at least the ability to "Change Non-Private" data as it will be adding information to your bug report. Thanks in advance!

When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's "Help -> Report a Problem" menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs.

Hi,

I'd be glad to provide you with more information. But unfortunately the makers of apport-collect did not think of proxies ...
I'm behind my company's firewall but apport-collect ignores both the proxy settings in gnome system settings and in environment vars.

Is there another way to manually upload the needed data to launchpad?

By the way:
this bug affects both the gnome and the kde desktop in exactly the same way.

Oh, bummer. apport-collect is essentially a hack which just directly attaches stuff to launchpad, so we probably can't get it to work.

Probably the best course of action would be to file a new bug report, using "apport-cli xorg". This will give you an option to store the report to a file. You can then save that file and send it later using "apport bug [path to file]."

If this is successful, please post the new bug's number as a comment in this one. Thank you!

You could try what it says here about 'Reporting Bugs From a Different Machine':

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Reporting#Reporting%20Bugs%20from%20a%20Different%20Machine

I tried the aport-collect but that suggested that it would be better if I created another bug, see bug 666058.

Thank, Jamie. I'm closing this bug because it has does not have enough information to triage. didgethesky, please file the new bug as requested if possible.
