I've been using Unity again for a bit with the standard ubuntu kernel, and the unity app bar thing is drawing off-screen here as well (so it wasn't just related to the main-line kernel). Screenshot attached, and running kernel:
$ uname -a Linux creswick 2.6.38-10-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 28 15:07:17 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux For posterity: The attached screenshot was made after docking and running this alias: $ alias dock alias dock='xset r rate 200 ; xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080 --rotate right --pos 1280x0 --output LVDS1 --pos 0x300 ' LVDS1 is the internal laptop display, running at 1280x800. FWIW, if you count the pixels in the screenshot, the bottom ~20px or so of the laptop display is black, and that portion of the screen won't display windows. It Will display the mouse cursor though. I think this "black bar at the bottom of LVDS1" behavior is consistent with the mainline kernel, but I'm not certain about that detail. ** Attachment added: "screenshot after docking & adjusting screens manually via xrandr.
