Bug Description

I have 2 displays, there is a 2pixel verticle strip of my left desktop on the left side of my right monitor and it is possible that a 2pixel strip on the right is also missing. to be clear, when i fullscreen an application on the Left screen, i see a verticle 2 pixel strip of the full screen application from the left screen on the right screen. I know it may not seem like a big deal, but its been bugging me from the last few releases. I am willing to help with any extra debugging nessesary.

Can Peter Yildirim, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Thank you for your understanding.
