I'll just paste the relevant stuff here:

# banner stuff
[org/gnome/login-screen]
banner-message-enable=true

disable-user-list=true
 
# disable fingerprint reader

By my count it's 1311 characters, but that's probably not treating the \n's as a single character.  FWIW, this is our approved "short" version of the banner.

That's a bit odd, I've got a 1920x1200 in front of me with no issues.  Perhaps my login banner is too short.

Can I get a copy of your dconf settings file (not the compiled db)?

Good point, thanks for asking!

The LCD displays we are running are 24" Hyundai P247D's, defaulting to 1920x1080, and we're running nVidia Quadro FX 570 cards.

I just found that I can reproduce the issue using the VM when I have a 24" display on my desktop and maximize the VM's window.

Attached are three screenshots of the VM.

Small - banner above the login dialog with scroll bar
Medium - banner on the left side of the login dialog with scroll bar
Large - banner in column overlaying the login dialog without scroll bar - this is what the physical machine with 24" display does all the time

Thank you kindly for your consideration!

Interesting!  What is the resolution of the 24" display?
