Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
when trying to output video to an external monitor from an atom laptop, selecting the external display resolution size does not do what it supposed to. Instead, we get partial graphics displayed on one monitor, and even less graphics displayed on another. the 'resolution' looks right , but the 'desktop' only takes part of the screen (a small part, like the left corner or the top half).
