Public bug reported:

My computer is connected to a TV via HDMI. There is some overscan that
cuts off the edges of the display, so being able to resize windows that
fill the screen in either/both vertical horizontal directions is
important. That is not possible with the installer, in both "Try
mythbuntu"  and "Install mythbuntu" modes. If I want to see all parts of
the window, my only choice is to move it left and right.

Because of this, I think I filed a duplicate of
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythbuntu-common/+bug/1309752
because I didn't realize I had checked the "Install VNC" option. The
check box was off screen. My duplicate is:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1311864

Possibly related is the fact that the mythbuntu-control-centre window is
also too wide and cannot be resized. Perhaps they share a common buggy
library?
