So I looked into more detail into the provided link (thanks it has been very educational). The one obvious potential solution is to set the HorizSync and VertRefresh properly. Unfortunately I cannot find any information on those specs for my computer screen. The Sony Website is not really helping much in giving such detailed specs. I fiddled around with several different combinations and resolutions to no avail. I don't think this is necessarily an Ubuntu specific problem. It's probably about configuring X11 for widescreen laptops (and sony XWGA+ display in particular).
