Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

When I get to the partitioning UI of Natty, and go to Advanced options or do anything partitiony from the menu and the window will expand to a size far larger than the screen of most Netbooks. There is still significant space to the left and right of the window, rather than expanding vertically to fit text (it describes what GRUB will do and how partitioning will be laid out) why not expand horizontally too? It cannot be so important that the background absolutely has to be seen behind the window at the cost of the buttons.

Alternatively, limit the window size to the height of the screen including the panel.

Also who's idea was it to make Ubiquity DM windows non-resizable?
