Not meaning to nitpick, but I saw your thread and while it was tangentially related - figured it was worth a seperate thread for troubleshooting my issue (which I then happened to resolved on my own, and then posted my workaround for).
Your thread and that ticket are specifically regarding resolution/dpi issues in the installer, not scan/sizing/resolution issues once installed. Very well related to the same root issue though, I just figured that as there was no specific verbiage for post-install issues, less linux savvy folks may not make the connection - thus making this thread.
Also, 1280x720 and 1360x768 (1366x768) are HD resolutions too - for 720p
(ok sorry, so maybe I was nitpicking a little, but it's all in good fun)
Yeah that's originally where I was heading when posting the thread to start, looking for suggestions on what tool to use for intel gpu's to acheive the same results as nvidia-settings would for an nvidia setup. I just stumbled across the .xprofile / xrandr way of going about it manually via some google diving instead.

However, when I have the issue on my HTPC I just use nvidia-settings to adjust overscan. You may want to take a look in what ever native config tool you have available.
