xdpyinfo says the DPI is 100x101... heh...
dimensions: 800x480 pixels (203x121 millimeters)
resolution: 100x101 dots per inch
In reality it's around 133dpi (153mm x 92mm).

Hi Folks:
I would think the DPI of the environment is playing into this. David, what DPI is on your EEE?

Hi David,
A lot of these MID devices don't have screens bigger than 1024x600
(some 800x600 depending on their aspect ratio). This change really
just reorganizes the GUI so that both laptops and MID devices can use
the same layout. I'm attaching an updated patch relative to 1.6.
Both versions would fit on both those screens. What's wrong with leaving
it as is? In the worst case, I'd move the contextual buttons to the side
of the treeview, instead of underneath, and add labels to those buttons.
The preferences dialog on an Eee PC (701) screen is a real pain, it is
too big vertically. 800x480 screen, plus a window manager bar at the
bottom, plus some chunky window decorations up the top. For a window to
fit conveniently on a standard Eee PC screen it needs to be 422 pixels
vertically it looks like (the standard decorations are VERY chunky :)
the dialog ix 420x420 and thus it should fit.
Interesting - that's not what I'm seeing. I've just tried xwininfo on
bluez-gnome-1.7 on both an Eee PC and a full sized PC (possibly with
slightly different support library versions).
Full sized PC geometry for the preferences window is 420x521. EeePC
geometry for the same is 420x523.
I'm not sure where the 2 pixel difference comes from (I don't think
the geometry here is including the window manager decorations). But
neither are close to 420x420. You weren't thinking 420x520 perchance?
