nvidia-drivers weird issue (solved)

Problems with emerge or ebuilds? Have a basic programming question about C, PHP, Perl, BASH or something else?

After my last update to nvidia-drivers-169.09-r1 my screen is now "shifted" to the right by a couple of inches. I tried going back to 169.09 with the same results. I've never had this happen, so I'm not real sure what to do about it. any thoughts?

Try the different options in the "GPU Scaling Method" box in the "DFP-1" tab, in nvidia-settings.

Also, try toggling the power on the LCD screen. It probably has an "auto config" button to press, also.
