(Switching back to proprietary nVidia driver) results in (graphic
corruption after resume from suspend)

However it seems there might be some issue related to how shadows are
rendered. Using nouveau, there are no shadows, and windows have borders
instead of being borderless with shadows.

I'm not familiar with: how the shadows are rendered, but there might be
some bug with shadow rendering path.

Title:
  Black borders around all windows

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  There seems to be a bug somewhere  in [ kernel OR xorg OR nvidia proprietary 
driver ] in the display stack.
  After the laptop ( dell XPS L501X ) resumes from suspend there are wide black 
borders around all windows with close/minimize/maximize buttons blacked out.

  [ image attached: black border on all windows ]

  It occurs inconsistently, as it doesn't happen every time the computer 
resumes.
  ( Slight possibility that it usually occurs after long suspend, i.e. resuming 
after long time ).
  
=================================================================================

  Also there seems to be certain amount of performance degradation as if
  the graphics driver was running at half-strength ( and I don't  mean
  software-only rendering, neither do I mean switch over to nouveau open
  source driver )

  The "nVidia X Server Settings" app suggests its in maximum performance
  mode.

  
==================================================================================

  Adhoc Workaround: switch display layout ( I have an external
  monitor/TV attached to HDMI port ) changing anything such as
  arrangement or resolution of the displays, etcetera... corrects the
  black border issue ( and also possibly performance issue )

  This bug has been present in Ubuntu 14.04, 15.04, 15.10 and now in
  16.04 as well. ( It was probably present before that as well )

  
==================================================================================

  p.s. this is only partial duplicate of black border issue as the black
  borders appear on every window, not just windows with new header bars
  or client side decoration...
