I've moved from Ubuntu 12.04 to Ubuntu 14.04. A problem has arisen that 
seems familiar, as if I went through it once with 12.04. I've done some 
searching, but haven't found the former solution, which I'm guessing 
will be similar to whatever it is I need to do in 14.04. Hopefully one 
of you will recognize the problem and kick me in the right direction.

Environment: Ubuntu 14.04 with Gnome Classic.

Sometimes, but not always, when I click on a link in an e-mail, Firefox, 
which is already running but minimized, will restore itself to the 
screen and open the link, but the minimize, maximize, close buttons will 
be missing from the title bar of the window. I can still right-click on 
the button at the bottom of the screen and have access to the minimize, 
maximize, close functions. Also, if I minimize and restore from that 
button, the controls will re-appear on the restored window.

I recall that there was something to do with Compiz or Metacity, but my 
foo has been insufficient to reveal to me which part of which of those I 
should be looking at. It's also possible that that recollection was 
related to something totally different. Sigh.

A pointer to which tool fixes this problem will be appreciated.
