Hi,
Yes, I have ardour on a Acer aspire one, 1024 x 600 screen.  I rarely use
ardour in it but when I do, I have the same problem (number 1).

I set Font Scaling ~ 80 in Windows -> Preferences -> Misc
and the ardour window fits OK but see below.

Is it like this screenshot?

It is my prob too. However, scrolling down works with the main window (the
place where the regions are displayed). The result is that you can't see
which track corresponds to what region/s when you scroll down.

My video card is Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics
Controller (rev. 03)

I run ubuntu jaunty and ardour 2.8.8 built from the sources (rev. 6672).
This problem happens with the 64studio jaunty backports rt kernel
(2.6.29-1-multimedia-686) and the ubuntu jaunty stock kernel
(2.6.28.14-generic).
Desktop environment is gnome.


Regards, Pablo
