I can confirm this bug affects both of my Toshiba Satellite comptuers on Gutsy 7.10 Stable. (As an aside, it also affects Kubutnu 7.10 stable as well)

The first of the Laptops has an ATi X1600 Mobile graphics chip, and the other has an Intel i915.

I first noticed the glitch when I ran the installer from the live CD. All of the dialog boxes had window borders that took up 1/3 of the screen. KDE seems far worse than Gnome. Every piece of text in KDE is too large, and it is 100% unusable. I found that in Gnome if the extra graphics settings for the window manager are turned off, then turned back on again it seems to resolve the problem.

Glad to see that others are experiencing the same glitch.
