Bug Description
I have configured the laptop screen in the left and a external monitor in the right. On the left most part of the monitor, I can see 1 column of pixels that belong to the content that is in the right most part of the laptop.
Strangely, it does not show up when I try to do a screenshot, but is quite evident when watching a fullscreen movie in the monitor, for example.

Is this a new behavior? Did you see this on quantal? (Or, can you try booting into a quantal livecd image, set up the external monitor, and see if it happens then as well.) If you didn't see it in quantal, did it occur as soon as you upgraded or installed, or did it occur only later?
I notice you have virtualbox installed, but I am gathering you're seeing this behavior unrelated to any VM sessions?
