Installed from daily-live 2-23-08 & updated.
Also have this issue with a thinkpad r50/radeon 7500/1024x768 resolution, although it is not as pronounced. The language & session buttons/text are not as far out of the box, but it still looks out of place. Looks like issue is resolution related, as I also had this issue while testing 2-21-08 within virtualbox (640x480 resolution). Note that my xorg.conf was empty (barebones file, no device specific settings) after installation.
