[Bug 267857] Re: Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart
Guys here is what works for me: I went to system--preferences-- appearance (funny how people leave out the middle step, which is confusing to newer users) then i chose no effects. it went back to normal. When i chose the medium grade appearance, it worked normally again, no obnoxious full screen effect coming back no matter how madly i try to remove all trace of firefox!!! Bottom line is its an Ubuntu bug. In my case it is intrepid 8.10s fault. I will call it a high priority bug..why?? BECAUSE ITS HELLATIOUSLY ANNOYING That puts it at the top of my list. Further since my knowledge of Ubuntu is not super deep, I can only theorize that it is rebuilding some kind of config file in how the whole appearance should go, that something got corrupted. Canonical, i continue to hope in the user friendliness of Ubuntu, this is the only thing that will make Ubuntu super competitive with windows. Otherwise geeks like me will be the only ones using it. It also couldnt hurt to make it have more support for various hardware in the US more drivers. But, lets face it. WIndows is perceived as A U.S. Brand product. Linux is european, at least until you go back to Unix...anyway...WIndows will do whatever is in its power to make sure there is no other competing OS. But linux file system is better, even for solid state drives! Especially for those. Again, I dont want to pay 1 to 300 more bucks every time an OS is released. More power to Linux! Another request: MORE VIDEO GAMING SUPPORT PLEASE!!! Ok theres my rant, thanks all.

Re: [Bug 267857] Re: Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart
I think 422025, it has more dev attention and is clearer. Seems to me that the simplest thing would be "always show the nav bar in FullScreen mode" - just ignore the user setting for this toolbar. This will always have the restore button, which is the main thing one needs. -- Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 267857] Re: Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart
Since it only presents a problem if you explicitly map over the standard F11 shortcut, I agree it isn't a huge deal.

Re: [Bug 267857] Re: Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart
Well... I won't argue the toss, I still think that hiding the navbar should not unexpectedly screw up fullscreen mode, but I accept it is not the world's highest priority bug. -- Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 267857] Re: Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart
david, there are 2 ways to exit full screen mode: pressing f11 and clicking on the button in the navigation bar. if you replace the keyboard shortcut and hide the bar, of course you will not be able to do the things that these options were providing you. this is the designed behaviour. not a bug. -- Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 267857] Re: Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart
I have this version already, and the bug still exists. I have also figured out the cause: I have no navigation toolbar, only the bookmarks toolbar and some customizations to put the location bar and buttons into my menu bar. (See my screencast.) If I make the navigation toolbar visible, then this problem goes away: the navigation toolbar pops up when I go to the top of the screen. -- Can't leave fullscreen, even after firefox restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

No, I tried setting Visual Effects to "None" in System->Appearance, and it didn't make any difference.
