Hello all. I am having a weird issue with multiple monitors in XFCE. I am using the nvidia proprietary drivers and have set my left monitor to an underscan value of 42 like I do in windows. This works and I can tell the borders on the TV are in the correct location, but when fullscreening windows they still go off the edge. I will provide screenshots to show what I mean.
Here is a link to an imgurl album walking through my configuration and the end result.
As you can see, if I make the monitors flush with each other horizontally, the left monitor "leaks" onto the primary one. If I make the right monitors position start at +1920 (the "true" resolution of the left monitor) then it works fine, but fullscreening applications one the left monitor do not use the new underscan resolution and are clipped as shown in the last image.
I have googled and googled but can't seem to find anybody with the same problem. Perhaps I am searching for bad keywords. At any rate, if anybody has any idea what could be causing this frustrating problem, please let me know!

Most modern flatscreen TVs have a display/ratio setting for using as computer screen in full resolution (no over-/under scan needed).

Amazing! I have been doing it the old fashioned way all these years! Worked perfectly, thank you very much TheSgtBilko.
