Bug Description

Binary package hint: orca

In Ubuntu Netbook Release 9.10 (Karmic) on a Compaq / HP 110 netbook with the Standard 1024 x 600 Screen Resolution:
1. Click on Ubuntu Menu > Accessories > Terminal
2. At the prompt, type this: orca

3. Press Enter key

4. Click on the Preferences button

5. Result: Bottom of Preferences window is cut off. You cannot see the OK / Cancel button.
(I will try to attach a screenshot to this report.) Note: The OK button is still active even though you cannot see it, as you can verify using the step below:

6. Press Tab ->| until the last visible item is selected, and then press Tab ->| once more, then press Enter, the Preferences screen goes away and the Orca program behaves as if Preferences had been set properly and OK had been clicked.

It would be good if the Orca Preferences screen were short enough to fit on a vertically limited display like a the one on a typical netbook, or if its size adjusted automatically as display resolution changes.

Thanks in advance for looking into this issue.
