Bug Description

A lot of the windows on my netbook are too big to be viewed on Ubuntu 9.10. I've altered the resolution, resized them, moved them and I don't know what else to do to fix this. It makes it difficult to use pretty much anything as a lot of the buttons are off screen. I'm assuming that this is not the same as Bug #365517 as it has been fixed and would have been in an update.

Program windows in Ubuntu can be moved by holding "alt" and left-clicking. This will allow the window to be dragged so that all areas of the program can be seen.

This issue was reported against karmic, so can you confirm if this issue exists with the most recent Lucid Lynx 10.04 Alpha release? ISO CD images are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/lucid/ . Thanks in advance.
