firefox opens fullscreen??

[robsm03]

I just installed suse 11.1 and am very new to linux. When i open Firefox just after i login, it opens in full screen. I dont see the title bar to minimize, maximize, or to close. The fullscreen mode is through suse and not firefox. How can i fix it? its incredibly annoying.

By pressing F11, what you get?

It goes into the firefox fullscreen mode, however, if I press it again, the title bar shows back up and looks normal. How can i prevent it?

[mmarif4u]

Two things you can try:
1- create new profile for FF.(Will loose history etc things)
2- Or try this:
Take it out of full screen, and un-maximize the window. Resize the window to something smaller, and then remaximize. Close and restart Firefox.

Hope it helps.

There is also an add-on that can do this so if you configured the
'FullScreen' (or something like that) add-on and told it to always start
FF full-screen then change that.

Good luck.

Hi,

Are you by chance running Gnome with Compiz-fusion as your window manager?

Take Care,

Ian

[BenderBendingRodriguez]

I remember having such issue, i solved it by clicking on panel to maximise it or something, after that it didn't happen again. Can't remember exactly now but You could look for my thread

[robsm03]

I'm running gnome and pretty sure about the compiz manager. For the moment, if i close it unmaximized, then it always opens as such.

I had the same issue when compiz was enabled..go to compiz setting->workarounds and disable legacy fullscreen support...I resolved it that way...bye..
