Public bug reported:

What happens:
Grafik for gksudo is broken when using TwinView and cloned screens.
With gksu or gksudo the screen blacks out when asking me for my password. Since 
I enabled my second screen, it blacks out twice for both screens. My second 
screen is little bit smaller than my primary screen, so I cloned them and moved 
the second screen 100 pixels towards the center. In this area you can see the 
screen blacked out twice (screenshot attached). This should happen only for the 
primary screen, if they are overlapping.

X-Configuration:
I used the package "nvidia-settings" to build my xorg.conf:
 -> X Server Display Config
 -> TwinView
 -> Position absolute, "+100+100"

My surroundings:
Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid (upgraded from 8.04)
NVIDIA Driver Version: 177.80
