Bug Description

Dual monitor setup. Screen colours are wrong on refresh from suspend (particularly Thunderbird) but all text blurry and shadowed with colour. At start from cold boot main screen has only a narrow strip on one side. Needs access to Gnome-control-center to adjust relationship of primary and secondary screens. Only a small movement of either screen brings up full screen on primary and the question "keep these settings". Answer yes and the problem has gone until the next cold boot.
The odd colouration of the monitors has happened since I upgraded to 15.10 so I expect to find a bug or two, however the narrow strip on the primary monitor has been an irritation with 15.04 as well.
