Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity-frontend-gtk

Installing in a VirtualBox (1.5.2) VM, my given resolution was 800x600 (only other option was 640x480). This in itself is not a problem, but the ubiquity installer's height is greater than 800, causing the OK and Cancel button to be inaccessible. I had to continue by pressing [Enter].

The ubiquity GUI might actually be 800, but this doesn't take into effect the GNOME panels being both above and below, causing the GUI to be too large. It should be a simple fix as long as the widgets aren't static.
