Bug Description

Binary package hint: jockey-gtk

The default window size is a bit too small, as the attached screen shot illustrates. The initial window with window manager decorations is 499x577. It's somewhat unclear that there are actually three drivers and not just the two nvidia drivers as the last nvidia is partially displayed and that could be the reason for the scroll bar on the right hand side. Increasing the default height to comfortably display 3-4 driver entries without a scroll bar should be possible even on an 800x600 display. Additionally widening the window should allow for the driver details to be displayed without horizontal scroll bars being necessary. This could also result in a vertical space savings as the paragraph at the top of the window about proprietary drivers could flow to the right a bit more.
