i think 1360x768 is made for 75hz not 60hz
if your monitor support 1360x768 75hz it should be fixed

its just what i did
i was 1360x768 60hz
and when i set it to 1360x768 75hz it was fixed
and thank god there is resolution protection Big Grin (i tried it higher but the monitor said it doesnt support 1360x768 85hz)

NOTE that refresh rate in Hz also plays role in where and how the picture stands on the moniter
so 1360x768 60hz there would be screen offset
but 1360x768 75hz the picture should be where it should be

Hi, i just want to report this.
I have Laptop Asus X201E, and i have OpenELEC 3.0.2 in it, but i wanna try XBMCbuntu.
I download the "xbmcbuntu-12.00.Intel-NVIDIA.iso" , put it on my Flashdisk using Unetbootin.
I Boot, and choose Sandy Bridge, if i choose another, it will lockup my system, with only Black Screen an cursor icon in the middle.

Then i connect my LCD TV with FUllHD resolution, i just get 1360x768 only.
When i try to change it to 1920x1080p, i just get 3/4 display too.

And i try to install it, i choose Sandy Bridge, when i have finished install it, i will only get Black Screen with Cursor Icon in the middle, and i cannot do anything else.
It lock up my system, the only way it's to press Power Button.

And i cannot connect to my Wifi, i hope i new release will include with Network Manager Front End

I hope it will be fixed in new release.
