Robert I am real suprised there has been no response to your query on this. A search of the thread under the mail list seems to sugest you have no replies.
I wonder if the very small window you get opening looks like a vertical Cigar ? I wonder if you are using Gnome with the restricted drivers and say a Nvidia Video card ? If this is all affirmative so far then have a look at the thread earlier this month and the month before about "Cigar problem" .. We have found that the Cigar issue seems to centre around Gnome and Restricted Drivers with the "Desktop Effects" enabled . Well thats how it was for me. Have a search for the "Desktop Effects" in the system menu from memory. Mine was set to Normal and this caused the Cigars to appear. Setting it to OFF fixed it along with using XFce and KDE desktops.
