Do you have x11-apps/xrandr installed? If you do, see what this says. xrandr --listmonitors This is mine: root@Gentoo-1 / # xrandr --listmonitors Monitors: 3 0: +*DP-2 1920/698x1080/393+0+1080 DP-2 1: +DP-1 1920/698x1080/393+0+0 DP-1 2: +DP-7 1920/1150x1080/650+1920+1080 DP-7 root@Gentoo-1 / # DP-2 is my primary display and if you have only one monitor, should be the only line for you but might be DP-1 instead. Micheal might can explain this better, or even more correctly, but I think the important part for this is where mine says +0+. I think, just think, if yours says something like +192+ instead of 0, that might be a clue. If it says 0 as it should, then this may be the wrong track to look down. What I'm wondering, is the monitor set to show a blank, or black, section on that side for some reason. This could very well not be the case tho. If it shows correctly like mine does, then ignore this and know that isn't causing the problem at least. This is a odd problem. I don't think I ever saw this even during the old CRT days. o_O Dale :-) :-)
