Doing a bit more digging on the nvidia forums I found a related posting about what is possibly a closely related issue with the 180.29 driver - complete screen-corruption and system lock-up requiring a forced hard reset.
It prompted to run an Open GL test with glxgears. Starting from a 'correct' screen, as soon as glxgears starts the screen image jumps to the right about 50 pixels and wraps around to the left edge. Starting nvidia-settings doesn't fix it, but navigating to the GPU 0 > DFP - 0 page and changing the state of any of the GPU scaling options fixes it. This is consistently reproduce-able. -- Screen shifted to the right with nvidia drivers and compiz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/321224 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
