Description

User reports to have problems on a window sized 1024x600 to configure the Persistent volume.

I am taking the liberty of assigning this bug to kurono, because of the similar nature of the patch in

Please excuse me kurono if you don’t want to work on it! It is just a suggestion…

  • Category changed from Hardware support to Persistence

Note that one can still use GNOME’s keyboard+mouse shortcuts to move the window and complete the task. Granted, that’s not obvious, and should not be needed.

  • Status changed from Confirmed to Duplicate

I could not reproduce this bug with my laptop screen at 1024x768. Maybe it was a different problem (i.e. graphic card)

I close it then though I found hard to choose between ‘rejected, ’duplicate’ or ‘fix committed’

  • Status changed from Duplicate to Rejected

to be a “duplicate” you should say what other ticket it duplicates. This one is just rejected because we lack information :)

Maybe it was a duplicate, but then it’s resolved. we can’t know…
