Public bug reported:
The Additional Drivers page generally has a short list containing
options with long labels, such as "Using X.Org X server - AMD/ATI
display driver wrapper from xserver-xorg-video-ati (open source,
tested)". Some of these labels are very similar for the first 50
characters or so.
Many labels go well beyond the default width for the dialog, resulting
in a horizontal scrollbar. Meanwhile, there is all sorts of vertical
space that could easily accommodate the information. It would be easier
to work with this dialog if the labels were word wrapped, instead.
** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Attachment added: "Screenshot of the Additional Drivers panel in Software
Sources featuring a horizontal scrollbar"
