Arch Linux + nVidia 355 + Kernel 4.2
The new nVidia driver for Linux breaks my Wacom Cintiq 21ux by setting set the screen in the wrong position - about 50 pixels from the top and 400 pixels from the left on a 1600x1200 resolution display.
I was able to confirm that downgrading to Kernel 4.1 and nVidia 352 fixed this issue.
This is the code I used to revert to 352.

Please let me know what other information and logs I can attach to this bug as I’m still unsure where exactly the problem lay.
(I have no /etc/X11/xorg.conf file or /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ subfiles pertaining to anyhing other than keyboard.)
