It's not easy, but you can set this up in gconf-editor. Run 'gconf-editor /apps/maximus' and change the value of 'exclude_class' to include the window class of whatever you want to ignore. To find out the class run 'xwininfo' and then click on the window in question - it will return with a line (among others) such as: xwininfo: Window id: 0x4400005 "VLC media player"
In this case 'VLC media player' is probably the class you want 2009/4/2 Simon Ives <si...@simonives.info>: > Hi all. > > I'm wondering if anyone knows of a settings file (for e.g.) that will tell > Maximus (part of the Ubuntu Netbook remix package) not to maximise certain > applications?
