I can't recall the name, but I think I've seen it. Hopefully someone else knows
better. 7.10 was supposed to have obviated this "edit text file" issue for
good. Maybe you stick with your habits (and/or documentation) from previous
versions.
BTW, this one thing that you mention was probably Ubuntu's #1 Achilles Heel
right from the start. I remember helping someone in USENET with Ubuntu 4.10
(first version) a long time ago. He had this problem and so did I. I convinced
him to moved to Linux in one of the general computer NGs under the .uk level
of the tree.
I actually also got a lot of visits to my site (thousands) from people who
sought a solution to this problem (search strings were consistent), indicating
the the issue was very common.
Ubuntu lags behind when it comes to monitor handling. Well behind. But I
thought this had been resolved by now. :-S
