Guys ... i'm happy to report something. VBIOS 2130 from 17R-SE due to the screen's size has an extra VESA resolution which just happens to be 1366x768x32 .. finally native VESA resolution:

Code:
Available graphics modes for refit.conf screen_resolution:

Curr. Mode = 3, MaxMode = 4, FB = C0000000, FB size=0x3FF0000

- Mode 0: 1024x768 PixFmt = 8bit BGR, PixPerScanLine = 1024

- Mode 1: 640x480 PixFmt = 8bit BGR, PixPerScanLine = 640

- Mode 2: 800x600 PixFmt = 8bit BGR, PixPerScanLine = 800

- Mode 3: 1366x768 PixFmt = 8bit BGR, PixPerScanLine = 1376

As a result XPC and UEFI Clover are no longer squashed ..
