I have also experienced this on some of the much older hardware that I own, where I have to drag the window off the screen to access the button to continue.
<br><br>I was just wondering if it would be possible to scale the size of the windows of the installer, or automatically scale the fonts to fit the screen size, as a couple of people i know have had quite a lot of difficulty getting their head around this problem on smaller displays. Just a couple of points that I wanted to bring up, I don't imagine it's possible automatically without re making the installer for Ubuntu, which is high end stuff, but you know, just something to put to the people...

This person would think it wasn't working properly, i like the text based installer actually, but that's not what I was focusing on mostly, the thing I was focusing on was the fact that some of the actual settings panels like mythbuntu etc. don't actually fit on either...
