Comment(by peterbe):

 Blacklisting the via framebuffer (viafb) in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-
 framebuffer.conf seems to have solved the scplit-screen issue. Also the
 little black square in place of  one of the top-panel hide buttons,
 mentioned above, has disappeared.

 But now, when I try to switch to a console screen with ctrl-alt-F3 (for
 example), I get a multicolored screen, instead of a blank screen, as
 described in my original Launchpad bug report. The multicolor screen
 behavior has happened before, in the history of this driver on this
 system.
