I can confirm this bug too.

It appears in VirtualBox in which it sets the res as 800x600 in WinXP SP2

I know I can use Alt+mouse to navigate so I can work around it ,but I'm creating a course which gets people installing and using Kubuntu in VirtualBox on Windows.

Here's the link if you're interested http://grahams.free-online.co.uk/mediawiki/index.php/A_complete_course_to_take_you_from_Windows_to_Linux

It's a bit ripe to say "I know this is a bit bad but...."

Even a dialog popping up on detection of low res to say "You can move the dialogs around by alt+mouse if the screen doesn't show ..." would at least get someone out of the mess.

Evan if you need to offload the bug I could fix this I'm sure.

Just need a little help on the GTK stuff probably from Colin.
