on live session in precise daily images, wrong resolution

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

On live session in precise daily images there are resolution bugs in particular:
* the unity-panel & launcher appear to be is squeezed thiner than suppose to

The background appears to be not-distored in the same manner, although it's hard to tell, given how "abstract" it is.

Screenshot to be attched.

This is using kvm/libvirt with cirrus graphics on a Trusty Tahr host.

Other visible visual corruption is a known & unrelated issue.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.

We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures

At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!
