[Bug 1313296] [NEW] Screen won't fit the monitor resolution on my laptop

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After upgrading the linux kernel, the next boot X started with wrong
resolution, after looking around I think it could be related to the auto
i915.modeset=0 in the kernel args, but  I don't know how to get this
fixed. Moreover the xorg fallsback to vesa on init (I am not sure this
is the proper way to express that).
