Why can I not see the whole window?
I have the following problem:
my Lenovo ideapad S10e runs on Ubuntu 12.04 and everytime I open a window it doesn' show it entirely. Meaning: the buttons on the bottom are out of the displays range (I hope I make myself clear...). I usually solve this problem by resizing the window and then move it up but with the system windows that doesn't work which means I cannot hit the APPLY button or such.
I read through zillions of posts concerning Ubuntu but couldn't find a solution.
What could be the problem?
The resolution (which can't be changed)?
The netbooks graphic card or display driver?
I am stumped...

I just resolved the problem
Setting>> Appearance>> Fonts>> then change the font size down to 9 or until you can see the buttons.
Its annoying because you can't make the screen smaller by dragging the top of the window down to make a smaller box, then drag the whole box upwards and scroll down to see the buttons; because it wont or give you the option to. This only occurred when I tried to install a new printer, and in the process menus I couldn't accept or see the buttons to continue the process.
