John Ellis, could you please advise which NVIDIA driver version

Title:
  HP Z210 workstation with nvidia Quadro 600 card thinks 32 inch  sharp
  TV/monitor is 37 inch

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I am dual booting with windows 8.1 and I am able to tweak the same
  misconfiguration with the nvidia console in windows by shrinking (down
  scaling) the display from 1920 X1080 to 1824 X 1026 resolution....
  preserving the aspect ratio.

   Is it possible to enable the correct identification of the monitor as
  a 32 inch diagonal instead of an oversized 37 inch diagonal which
  makes my top menu bar and application side bar offscreen? I tried to
  install the nvidia (updates driver) but tweaking resulted in a
  missconfiguration forcing a lockup and reinstall.

  Since Windows also misidentifies this display it may be a
  communication error sourced from the display itself or documentation
  annomalies in an obscure monitor ...any advice or direction would be
  appreciated.

  John Ellis
