Bug Description

Binary package hint: boinc

The button texts on the main screen don't fit in the buttons. I have attached a screenshot showing the problem.

Also, the background image doesn't cover the entire background, there is a blue border to the right and at the bottom of the window.

This is likely to be an upstream bug.
Anyway, it still looks like this in the current release (6.10.58+dfsg-2~lucid1, via pkg-boinc PPA).

Setting as invalid, since in the 7.x release the simple view has changed and this is not a bug anymore.

@Daniel and others, please try 7.x and set status back to "new" if you don't agree.

@Daniel, but there is no fix for this bug, simply the interface has changed.

Sure, but re-implementing something is also a fix after all.

If the whole simple interface would have been removed, only then I would consider it "invalid".
