Description Viorel-Cătălin Răpițeanu 2015-10-23 22:07:09 UTC

Launch the full-screen dashboard. There is a padding at the top of the screen. Sometimes the distance between the left padding and the right one differ. This happens only on a monitor with 1600x900 resolution.
I never was able to reproduce this behaviour on a 1366x768 monitor.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch the fullscreen dashboard. 

Actual Results:  
The fullscreen launcher should be correctly positioned.

Expected Results:  
There are disproportioned paddings at the top/left/right of the dashboard.
Sometimes the left/right paddings differ.

This was seen only on a 1600x900 display.

This behaviour is observed only with the proprietary nvidia driver on NVIDIA Corporation GF119M [NVS 4200M]. After I switched to the nouveau driver, the dashboard is starting to be displayed correctly.

Kick in small screen mode on 1600x900 (née vertically small screens) as well.
