Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rdesktop

Steps to reproduce this bug:

Connect to a Windows server with Terminal Server Client and disconnect
producing an error dialog. This error dialog itself may have been
produced by another bug. However, the dialog box is a default one.

Problems:

1) The Default size of the dialog box isn't wide enough to accomodate the text: 
"Terminal Server Client Error"
2) If a user clicks the details dropdown to show information and then clicks it 
again to hide information, the dialog box is not correctly resized.
3) The bold text is too generic. "An error has occurred" is superflous when 
combined with the accompanying warning symbol.

Suggestions:

1) Either increase the horizontal size of the dialog box or preferably remove 
it and show the information as below.
2) Correctly resize the dialog button in the case mentioned above or see below.
3) Consider having the actual error text accompany the warning symbol
4) Merge the countdown timer for reconnect with the Connect button in order to 
improve the UI and conserve space.

Version of Ubuntu: 9.04 Jaunty
Version of rdesktop: 1.6.0-2ubuntu1

Thanks,
Twig
