Bug Description

Attempted to log in via unity ( unity8-desktop-session-mir 1.0.12+15.04.2 ) option via lightdm, and was presented with a "Welcome to your new phone" (odd since this isn't a phone - it's a laptop, but whatever) menu asking to select a language -- but the screen was off center on my monitor, and (worse) attempts to click on the menu resulted in clicks happening maybe 20-30 pixels below where the pointer was located. This rendered that particular menu unusable.
