Bug Description

Binary package hint: gdm

Hello!

On my system the gdmsetup window doesn't fit vertically on the screen. The window is tall enough that the "Help" and "Close" buttons aren't visible. The window can't be resized smaller than 789 pixels tall, though it can be larger. (My screen is 1280x800, and I have a 25 pixel-tall panel each on top and bottom.)

(This is compounded by the fact that on my system windows can't be moved "above" the screen's border. I think this is a window manager setting, and I don't know if that's the default setting, but still.)

I'm using the Mist theme.
