Why are buttons too small for text?

That's what I was afraid of. AFAIK, I'm using the default GTK
configuration on Mandrake 10.1, so that means the defaults in
Mandrake are broken. Other GTK apps don't seem to have the
problem, so they must be doing someting different than
wxWidgets.

The "best size" of the buttons is determined by GTK and the wx
sizers use that value to calculate the layout. My guess is
that something is configured weirdly on your system that is
causing GTK's calculation to be incorrect. Try playing with
different themes or font settings.
