@Oliver, we may be at cross-purposes. Maximus seems like a good "pixel- conserving" solution for users who have small screens even when they can't/won't use Unity. I installed Maximus without UNE, and I had a reasonable expectation that it would start automatically. I'm just an old IT-vet who sometimes installs packages, not a Gnome hacker. I'm not trying to recommend how others should use Ubuntu, just trying to point out that the last config change had a surprising result for me, and I hadn't realised that my use case was seen as anomalous.
I've followed your advice and manually added it to Startup Applications in an enabled state without problem. Perhaps a note regarding this could be added to the package description and/or man page. -- maximus should only run in netbook-session and not start in gnome-session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/631696 You received this bug notification because you are a member of TI OMAP Developers, which is a direct subscriber.

By default it uses the une-efl session, where apps are maximized by default. after logging out and logging into with the standard desktop session, apps are still maximized, and I think they should not. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~tiomap-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~tiomap-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
