Services configuration tool doesn't provide an horizontal scroll bar

[Giorgos]

System -> Administration -> Services does not have an horizontal scroll bar, so
you have to resize the window to see the full entries. This is counter-intuitive.

Hi, is this still an issue in Dapper or Edgy?

This is easily reproducible, just open the Services Manager & resize the window to its smallest. Alot of the service names can not be fully seen.

Thanks for your bug report. This bug has been reported to the developers of the software. You can track it and make comments here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=418000

I've just committed upstream a change so that descriptions don't get wider than the dialog. This way we no longer need an horizontal scrollbar, which is a very poor workaround. So this will be fixed with 2.29.90, for Lucid.

Fix released upstream with the gnome-system-tools 2.29.90. (Even if the upstream task is not updated correctly.)
