Public bug reported:

Unity launcher does not honor launcher_hide_mode 0 (never) when
maximazing window.

The window will be too wide and partly hidden by the launcher bar.

Sometimes the problem can be fixed with this:
gconftool-2 --type int --set 
"/apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options/launcher_hide_mode" 1
sleep 2
gconftool-2 --type int --set 
"/apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options/launcher_hide_mode" 0

This does not work always.

The problem started after upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10.

I have 2 screens:
2 X Screens on vaio:0

    [0] vaio:0.0 (GeForce GT 230M)

    [1] vaio:0.1 (GeForce GT 230M)
