Jeff Turner, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/product- support/product/optiplex-gx620/drivers an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (A11). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 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, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-a11 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1347504 Title: display screen keeps moving around when curser gets close to edge Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: ithe display moves both up and sideways on all desktops i have installed ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-32.57-generic 3.13.11.4 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-32-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia .proc.driver.nvidia.gpus.0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0' .proc.driver.nvidia.registry: Binary: "" .proc.driver.nvidia.version: NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 331.38 Wed Jan 8 19:32:30 PST 2014 GCC version: gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None Date: Wed Jul 23 05:00:58 2014 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: trusty DistroVariant: ubuntu DkmsStatus: bbswitch, 0.7, 3.13.0-32-generic, x86_64: installed nvidia-331, 331.38, 3.13.0-32-generic, x86_64: installed ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: NVIDIA Corporation G92 [GeForce 9800 GT] [10de:0605] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: BFG Tech Device [19f1:09be] InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-07-21 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) MachineType: Dell Inc.
