in kubuntu (and ubuntu) 11.04 i used to enlarge my laptop screen like so
xrandr --output LVDS1 --scale 1.2x1.2
this worked fine: the desktop scaled to larger size correctly .
After upgrading to 11.10, in kde the desktop still resizes
correctly, but the movement of the mouse is restricted to an area equal to
the screen size *before* issuing the scaling command. ..
