Description Dominique Leuenberger 2013-08-27 19:07:36 UTC 
On smaller displays (e.g. 800x600), the background selection is not usable.

The 'initial' panel (with background and lockscreen) are ok (appear almost fullscreen); then, clicking 'Background' to switch to a different image and/or color spawns a modal window, which bypasses the 800x600 screen resolution.

The window optimally adjusts to the available display size.
