Eric, tshirtman, Really appreciate your sharing your approaches for a work around to keep this feature in oneiric and perhaps pangolin. For my level of expertise, i'll remain patient a little longer before diving in with spanner and wrench :) Thanks again, Karl On Tue, Mar 20, 2012 at 00:45,

Hi Eric, I'd really appreciate if you could explain what exactly to do with fixed_grid_oneiric.tar.bz2 or maybe point to similar resource as such. For those like myself who dearly miss this functionality but lack the expertise to implment your fix. I suspect we may need to do this all over again

Devs, With a clean install of 11.10 (32bit);,Ctrl-Alt-KP_4 and Ctrl-Alt- KP_6 only delivers a 1/2 screen re-size, irrespective of repeated Ctrl- Alt-KP_(4 | 6). Ctrl-Alt-KP_(1|2|3|5|7|8|9) appear to work normally i.e., deliver further re-sized options with repeated key-requests. Happy safe
