Bug#501040: /usr/sbin/gdmsetup: gdmsetup does not fit within my 1024x600 screen

Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.7-3
Severity: important
File: /usr/sbin/gdmsetup

gdmsetup doesn't fit within my 1024x600 size screen, making the buttons "Help" and "Close" not accessible.
Would be nice if this dialogbox could adjust itself to fit within the smaller screen of popular notebooks.
