I can add some good news on this bug! I just booted my netbook from a 11.04 Live CD (well on a flash drive actually). The resolution is 1024 x 600 and it is running the Unity interface. When I call up gnome-disk- utility it is too big to fit on the screen both vertically and horizontally. HOWEVER, there are tiny scroll indicators on the right and bottom edges of the window. When I click the mouse on one of these indicators an up/down or left/right arrow widget which allow me to scroll the contents of the window. VERY COOL!
So the bug which I reported in 10.04, and which is still present in 10.04, has been resolved in 11.04. Will it be back ported to 10.04 which is an LTS release? Ken p.s. I cannot figure out how to run the Live CD in Ubuntu Classic Desktop mode so I cannot say if Unit fixed the bug or if it was fixed by Gnome 3. p.p.s. Not to be stopped by that limitation... I just fired up a VMWare 11.04 virtual machine. It is running Ubuntu Classic Desktop due to limitations of the VMWare video services. I cannot change the resolution to 1024 x 600 but I did change it to 800 x 600. The gnome-disk-utility window it too big for this display. Again the scroll indicators and scrolling arrow widgets are present. B.I.F.
