It happened a few hours ago, and scared the shit outta me. I was using
the same build as to post this message: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686;
en-US; rv:1.9.1.5pre) Gecko/20091030 SeaMonkey/2.0.1pre - Build ID:
20091030003835
Suddenly (I must have done something but I have no idea what; it could
have been Ctrl+W in the Print Preview except that AFAIK that should just
close the PP and have no effect on the rest of the browser) all my
browser chrome went away: menubar, toolbars, tabbar, statusbar,
everything. Only the window title and the content were left.
- Mailer windows were unaffected, this was only the Browser.
- This was not the same as fullscreen mode (repeatedy hitting F11 made
the KDE taskbar disappear and reappear, but my browser chrome remained
hidden).
- Hitting Ctrl+L brought up a popup dialog asking me a URL; by typing
about:config there and setting the rolldown widget in the same popup to
"In a new tab" the tabbar came back but not the rest of the chrome.
- Most of the menus I couldn't access anymore (Alt+F, Alt+E, Alt+V etc.
produced no action in he Browser anymore). Alt+O still brought up the
Preferences dialog (opened at the "Appearance" page) but I couldn't find
anything useful there.
- After the tabbar had come back, its "New tab" button did nothing. (Not
sure if that button belongs to plain-vanilla-Sm or to some extension.)
Nor did Ctrl+T in the Browser AFAICT. Clicking a tab had the usual
effect of making that tab current.
- I'm on KDE; many keychords (including, but not limited to, all Ctrl+Fn
and Alt+Fn) never reach any application (the display manager intercepts
them).
Finally I fixed it by closing and reopening the whole Browser (but not
the Mailer). However I'd like to know some less drastic solution if ever
it happens again.
Best regards,
Tony.
