2016-06-18 17:25:55 penalvch description There seems to be a bug somewhere in [ kernel OR xorg OR nvidia proprietary driver ] in the display stack. After the laptop ( dell XPS L501X ) resumes from suspend there are wide black borders around all windows with close/minimize/maximize buttons blacked out. [ image attached: black border on all windows ] It occurs inconsistently, as it doesn't happen every time the computer resumes. ( Slight possibility that it usually occurs after long suspend, i.e. resuming after long time ). ================================================================================= Also there seems to be certain amount of performance degradation as if the graphics driver was running at half-strength ( and I don't mean software-only rendering, neither do I mean switch over to nouveau open source driver ) The "nVidia X Server Settings" app suggests its in maximum performance mode. ================================================================================== Adhoc Workaround: switch display layout ( I have an external monitor/TV attached to HDMI port ) changing anything such as arrangement or resolution of the displays, etcetera... corrects the black border issue ( and also possibly performance issue ) This bug has been present in Ubuntu 14.04, 15.04, 15.10 and now in 16.04 as well. ( It was probably present before that as well ) ================================================================================== p.s. this is only partial duplicate of black border issue as the black borders appear on every window, not just windows with new header bars or client side decoration...

It occurs inconsistently, as it doesn't happen every time the computer resumes. Also there seems to be certain amount of performance degradation as if the graphics driver was running at half-strength. The "nVidia X Server Settings" app suggests its in maximum performance mode. Adhoc WORKAROUND: switch display layout (I have an external monitor/TV attached to HDMI port) changing anything such as arrangement or resolution of the displays, etc. corrects the black border issue. (update: Adhoc WORKAROUND no longer works with nvidia 375.39) Adhoc WORKAROUND 2: type "unity" in terminal i.e. user@machine:-$ unity (that should restart unity/compiz) (and kills/closes some (read: web-browser) windows) See comment :https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-361/+bug/1576228/comments/4 WORKAROUND: Use nouveau.
