Title:
  update-manager cuts off 'install packages' button on bottom right hand
  of software update screen unless maximized.

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  What I expected:
  When there are new packages to install, I click on the icon on the dock, which brings up the software update screen of the package manager. The window should be entirely visible on the screen, and all controls should be available.

  What happened:
  This window is not maximized, but is sized larger than the screen, thereby cutting off the 'install packages' button. I have to click on the 'maximize' button to resize the window in order to see the 'install packages' button.
