Hi Stephan,

I don't have the time to make that patch, but it's not really difficult,
just grep for fullscreen in the Elisa Pigment plugin, and replace the
call to set_fullscreen (or the fullscreen property assignment) by
something like that:

  viewport.set_position(0, 0)
  resolution = viewport.get_screen_resolution()
  viewport.set_size(resolution[0], resolution[1])

If you don't feel confident about doing that yourself, installing a
lightweight window manager like FVWM [1] is actually not that bad IMO as
a temporary solution.

Regards, Loïc.
