I have a LCD display (115 mm x 86 mm) with VGA resolution (640 x 480)
connected over LVDS with an Intel Atom N450.
After upgrading from Ubuntu 10.04 to 14.04 I only see the upper left
detail of the whole screen (see attachment 'display_picture.jpg').
The Xorg log (see attachment 'Xubuntu.14.04.4.LTS.Xorg.0.log') reported
a physical screen size of 270 mm x 203 mm which is pretty much the size
of the whole screen.
Any suggestions?
Something to try (I don't have any Intel Atoms to test on):
1.login on a vtty
2.sudo apt-get purge xserver-xorg-video-intel
3.reboot (or restart X xserver)
Reason: sometime post-server 1.16.x. the generic modesetting driver was moved
directly into the server itself. It's supposed to be competent for all
non-ancient mainstream gfxchips, a substitute for chip-specific drivers. If
it doesn't help, it's up to you whether to bother reinstalling the intel driver.
