Compliments of the season to you all,
A few days ago I began having an issue with my Firefox window which I'm
stumped on. It is an Ubuntu 8.10 install with Gnome. The window is
always in a maximised state, where the title bar with close button is
missing, and the bottom of the window covers a panel there. I can move
the window to another workspace, or move the panel to another edge of
the screen, but this doesn't help. Right clicking the Firefox button on
the panel, I can use minimise, unminimise, or close, but not move or
resize. I can't use the Alt key + drag the window. Fortunately I can
Alt + Tab to another window when Firefox has the focus (or close via Alt
+ F4) since every time it gets the focus there are no other obvious
navigation options visible.
The Firefox window is the only one that exhibits this behaviour. Google
hasn't helped so far, does anyone have any ideas on how to rectify
this? My only idea at this point being a removal and reinstall of
Firefox. First though I was interested to see if there is a solution or
understanding of the situation from a list member?
Cheers,
Roger
