Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I will attached a screenshot of the whole desktop so it is more clear, but here
are the anomalies:
* on the secondary screen, the desktop (the background) is not properly
refresh, if I move a window against its background, I can see the "trail" of
the window and the display is always corrupted there. However, application are
refreshed properly, I can display an application in full screen on the
secondary monitor without any glitches, only the desktop background is messed
up.
* the secondary monitor has 1080 px high whereas my laptop monitor has 1050
px, however when both screens are connected, my laptop monitor has 1080 px high
but displays only 1050 px out. Which is weird. You can see that on the
screenshot, above the Gnome top applet bar there is 30 px of empty space where
I can "loose" my mouse...
* the wallpaper is never display properly in any of the possible options:
zoom, scaled, tiled, etc. it seems that the Gnome desktop gets it all wrong...
In the screenshot the wallpaper is "zoom"-ed which is the "better" looking
(albeit still ugly) version...
Note: I have an Intel GMA X4500HD (G45 chipset) graphic card (Lenovo T500) with
UXA and normal desktop effects (compiz) activated.
Another note: I had not this behaviour with previous Ubuntu release including
during Jaunty alpha and beta development. However, I do not think I had UXA
activated (not quite sure).
Last note: if it is UXA, for the rest it is working fine, no other display bugs.
