Bug Description
I've not been able to cross-test this against any other flavor ATM, but if you boot Ubuntu GNOME 20140225 i386 and enter the advanced boot menu, and then select Try Ubuntu you get what appears to be a wrong resolution, but the resoltion is correct.
It appears that some notification is trying to appear as indicated by the "half gear" in the lower left corner of the screen, please see attached screenshot (I hope).

BTW I edited nothing in the boot parameters. I just hit enter, selected the default English language, and then selected Try.
If you reboot and wait until the standard try vs install screen appears everything works fine.
