Bug Description

When my right hand monitor is positioned above the left hand monitor, the top row of pixels on the left hand monitor appears as garbage. This does not occur when they are aligned.

May or may not be related to this old bug with the same symptoms:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/846335

Occurs with standard kernel as well as my current linus mainline kernel.
