Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
On open in Intrepid, FF fills entire screen, blocking out Ubuntu menu bar (top)
and the status bar (bottom), but still showing it's own menu and the bookmarks
toolbar. An F11 switches it to true fullscreen, then a second F11 displays FF
as it should, with Intrepid menu bar redisplayed, Firefox w/menu and toolsbar,
and status bar below.
Also, Help/About achieves similar behavior, but w/o the FF menu bar
showing, and the Intrepid menu/status bar restored. When you click on
the placeholder in the status bar, you have options to minimize or
unmaximize. When you minimize and maximize again, you're back where you
started, with the Intrepid menu gone and the status bar gone.
Unmaximize has no effect.
System is AMD Athlon with onboard video. Monitor is 17", 1024
resolution. Intrepid is up to date on patches.
