I have a Dell Inspiron 6400, and I confirm this bug after a day of
debugging gnome-power-manager. Both gnome-power-manager and the
kernel/BIOS/something-that-is-not-gnome-power-manager try to change the
brightness when I press the brightness keyboard keys.
How about adding a HAL property that
I think the bug fix should be backported to Intrepid. Although it is
cosmetic, the dialog is as good as unusable unless the user resizes it.
On top of that, this bug is something that users encounter multiple
times on a daily basis.
Would an Ubuntu packager accept a donation to get this fix
By the way, I think this qualifies as a regression. I experience this
problem on a clean Ubuntu 8.10 install.
In the mean while, people are making a huge fuss about this at

Very strange. The file dialog in Firefox instantly resized to a correct
size. Apparently GTK saved this size so all my other GTK applications'
file dialogs now appear to have the correct size. The only annoyance
left is that I can see the file dialog resizing, but this is a minor
issue.
It seems I spoke too soon. The file dialog's size reverts to being small
after closing Firefox. The behavior is strange:
1. Start Firefox.
2. Open file dialog in Firefox. This has the correct size.
3. Start gedit.
4. Open file dialog in Gedit. This has the correct size.
5. Close Firefox.
6.
