just on that, I have been playing around with fvwm-crystal of late, and have noticed some interesting things the bug does not show up due to the window manager putting preference of the title bar over whatever the application deems fit however, there is a fullscreen button on the title bar

**FIX FOR THIS ISSUE** Okay... its not the proper fix, but I assume people are just going to skim over this and not identify that TURNING LEGACY FULLSCREEN SUPPORT IN THE COMPIZ 'WORKAROUNDS' PLUGIN OFF will cease the issue. I apologise for using big text, but I wanted to make sure that this is

To Jason Woofenden, Just out of curiosity, since I have no experience with wmii (I assume you are using version 3 not 2), are you using compiz? Everyone who has had this bug confirms that it only appears whilst using compiz, and given this is under the compiz bug section (now. It was originally

This is an interesting development, as I'm quite sure the firefox reports were all closed down and forwarded to compiz. Perhaps this was rightly placed under firefox originally. I have saved the xprop output of a normally functioning firefox window, and as soon as I have an malfunction occur, I

And just on that... I tested the 1024 x 768 setting under metacity and it didnt display the bug as it did under compiz. Perhaps gnome-panel is more definite under metacity than compiz. -- Firefox problems with desktop-effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99740 You received this bug

Good job Bro!! my settings are: width=994 screenX=0 screenY=24 height=693 which are fine, however when I change the width and height to 1024 and 768 respectively, it produces the bug. And to be honest, since I added the mozilla launchpad repository to my sources.list I have not seen the
