There are many bug reports involving installer window too big for screen. For example : #727905 #51442 #632320 #630363 #890983 #173392 #712848 #38442 . Perhaps some should be marked as duplicate to clean up the bug list.
This situation happens not only on some hardware but in some case of video driver limitation or virtual machines.
I suggest to make them duplicates of the oldest, #38442, provided that we mark that one as "also affects Ubuntu 14.04".
I'm adding some suggestions there.
