Bug Description
Binary package hint: nvidia-common
I don't know if this is the best place for reporting the bug, since it's a proprietary driver. If so, please tell me where I can report this.
When running the proprietary Nvidia driver in full resolution (in my case, 1368x768), we have problems in fine tuning. Some characters and vertical lines appear to be tinier than normal, or blurred. This bug is not present when running the opensource driver (but the proprietary is needed for achieving 3D acceleration), as well as in the proprietary driver with lower resolutions - e. g. 1024x768.
I have an AOC 1943W monitor. I changed all the things what would be possible for solving the problems, but no success. Only if I use the opensource driver instead.
