Hmm, not sure if this is still an active issue...
but I could finally get it to work by adding the kernel option
video=hyperv_fb:1920x1080 as suggested by codrutoctavian here;
http://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/494938-change-suse-resolution-
when-running-in-Hyper-v
For those less familiar with grub (like me)
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBootParameters explains how to add
kernel options.
Frustratingly, even after I reduced my windows resolution back to
1920x1080, the Hyper-v manager still rescaled the vm output to the
original ratio! (this REALLY annoying bc hyper-v can obviously scale
video output and if they scaled up the lower resolution, it would
overcome the postage stamp size vm screen). Anyway, restarting windows
with 1920x1080 resolution did the trick, with full screen 1920x1080
ubuntu 14.04 running under windows.
