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?

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. (bug is fixed!)
