Panning on nvida-304 does not work, screen corruption on nvidia-331/334

[berend]

When enabling panning in nvidia settings manager, nothing happens. When doing so in 311/334 panning works, but as soon as you move a window in there, the screen gets corrupt.

This might be an nvidia bug obviously, not sure.

This worked fine in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 32-bit version. Have now jumped to 64-bit version.

[berend (berenddeboer)]

Upgraded to nvidia-337, when enabling panning the panned portion still goes crazy.

[berend (berenddeboer)]

nouveau driver exhibits exactly the same corruption, almost worse I would say. Enabled it with:

  xrandr --output LVDS-1 --panning 3520x1200

so not an nvidia driver bug, but somewhere in Xorg.
