[Bug 1240104] [NEW] Edges are cut off on HD TV connected via HDMI

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

I am trying to use Ubuntu 13.10 (saucy) on a PC with an Nvidia card and
a Telefunken 55" HD TV (4k ready).

The edges are cut off, i.e. the icons of the launcher are only partially
visible. I already found a few suggestions on askubuntu, but none of
them work.

I switched off upscaling, but the TV is very limited in what can be
configured by the user.

I am not using the proprietary Nvidia driver, which means using nvidia-
settings is not an option either.
