Since upgrading to 10 a few weeks ago, I've occasionally logged in to find the display stretched out of shape. Everything appears too tall & thin. Logging out and back in has always fixed the problem.

I've gone through the logs but I really don't know what I should be looking for, nor even what information I might post to this list to help in diagnosing the issue other than my video card info. Can anyone give me some pointers on what to look for, or what I can provide to help solve this?

I can't say ofhand whatis causing it, but if you have access to a "stretched" terminal window, what does xrandr say about the display, and can you use it to return it to the proper size?

Thanks. Yeah, when this happens, I can easily open a terminal. Thanks for the tip. I've just saved the output (I'll print it here, fwiw) so i can compare the next time this happens. And I'll go through the man page to figure out how to (try to) reset the dims.

I'd really like to know, though, if there's something in a log that might provide a clue as to why it's happening.

This is the current output (the screen is fine). I doubt there's anything here to suggest what the problem might be.

$ xrandr
