Asus Eee 901, alpha5: same issue, connecting external monitor and using
higher resolution helps as a workaround.

IMHO the bug importance should be at least "Medium" or "High", because:

1) A  person coming from Windows experience can be completely stuck on
the very first step of installer. There is no visible way to access
<Quit>/<Back>/<Forward> buttons in ubiquity (no scrollbars, no panning).
It is more than a minor inconvenience - it prevents user from installing
Ubuntu. Even if they don't give up and find some workaround, it spoils
first impression (cant even run installer).

2) Virtually all 9" netbooks (asus, dell, acer...) have similar 1024x600 9" 
screens with ~134 dpi.
All of them seem to be affected. This is bad as low-cost netbook segment is 
important for Jaunty.
