Ferdes: No different except that the view got as wide as the screen. but the log and shut-down remains unchanged.
Just a thought: Should I move away from IceWM to fix it? Install a task- ? I like Ice, but would be talked out of it if it fixed that screen. How could I reposition that log-in box on the screen? Could a "Clever person" write a different boot screen configuration for us Eeep 701 users, to shift it?

BJF,

Try installing another GDM theme, then in a terminal type gdmsetup and choose teh local tab, and choose a different theme.

In the default gdm theme Avio and PCOBOX claim to be 640 themes.    (gdm-themes)

FYI
ASUS EeePc 900HA netbook  1.6 Ghz Atom CPU  1GB RAM
160 GB internal HD    Seagate 250 GB USB portable drive 
Intel ‎Mobile 945GSE Integrated Graphics Controller

Gentlepeople: Avio gives me an alternate log screen that has all the important bits within an 800x480 sized screen so I can mark this (SOLVED) and go off and play.

Thank you all for your input.
