[wellylug] Ubuntu 7.04 issues

Hi

I have just had another look at my HDD with 7.04 installed on it, I have not
been using it as I cannot get it to look right!

When a terminal window is open the first 2 letters of all emails disappear
off the left hand edge of the window, and in Firefox the left hand edge is missing
also. All I have found to fix this is to change the screen res from 1280x1024 to
1152x864, then I can read everything, but this can't be the right answer, can it? It makes the desktop
icons too big and everything looks awful.

Can someone give me a hint as to what the problem is? I have also reduced all my
fonts so they are smaller than I have in 6.04 but that didn't work. Also tried fiddling
with my monitor centering but that didn't help and have not found anything that seems
to relate on google.

thanks a lot
Lyndsay
