I have the same problem on 2 installs out of 3. And no "Removing a network device that was not added" in /var/log/syslog. I also found that the problem does not seem to occur on Xorg, only on Wayland. And I also found that the work around is to go to a console and then back using (e.g.) ctrl-alt

Another surprising observation: Wayland seems to work just fine for me, it's only X11 that has the maximization shrinking bug. 'headerbar' can be true or false on Wayland with 22.04. I tried it on two different installs with the same behavior. Okay then. I guess I'll use Wayland. I liked t

@peterx14 I did a few more experiments. One needs a new gnome session altogether for the 'headerbar' false change to work. I tried this a few times to confirm. Just killing all the terminals is not enough. However, when I login/out or kill gnome-session to restart the session manager, the p

Hm, perhaps I misremembered the tweak. I do recall that 22.04 did not work initially. I applied the dconf menu setting and it started to work. I reset the dconf legacy menu setting just now and it still works (i.e. no shrinking after maximization). So I'm mystified . . . -- You received this b

I'm not an expert, but you might want to see if you can gain some insight from the output of 'journalctl -b0'. E.g. is your system using the framebuffer driver "fbcon: xxx" or "[drm] ..." during boot up? In the 'journalctl -b0' output I posted above,you can see that it's using the frame buffer.
