I've attached a picture of it. Should clear up any misunderstandings. ** Description changed:
I presume the bug is in xorg since it affects everything - even the Ubuntu boot screen. As the summary says, only a small portion of the screen is used. It's not that it's invisible - the mouse pointer, all UI elements etc. stops at the edge - it's simply as if my screen is tiny. To clarify: My physical screen is now divided up into four parts, only the top left of which is used by Ubuntu, the rest are black or filled with more or less interesting colors. Ubuntu behaves as if my display consisted solely of its top left corner and displays accordingly. Bug was not a problem in 10.11 - Bug has been a problem in 11.04 and 12.04 + Bug is a problem in 11.04 and 12.04 -Other versions unknown.
