Problem: Can't exit fullscreen mode in Aisleriot Solitaire (Ubuntu 8.10).
Just ran into this myself.  Reloaded one of my systems with 8.10 and installed 
all updates.  After playing a few rounds of Solitaire for the first time since 
the reload, I tried to exit full screen mode and could not.  Pressing F11 or 
clicking on the Leave Full Screen button caused the window to resize then go 
back to full screen.  Only way to exit was Alt+F4.

I logged out and logged back in as another user (my wife).  Solitaire
started in non-fullscreen/non-maximized mode.  I pressed F11, played two
hands then pressed F11 again.  Worked fine.  Logged out then logged in
as myself.  Problem still there.

Solution:
1. Open terminal.
2. Start gconf-editor (don't use sudo).
3. Navigate to Apps->Aisleriot.
4. Locate the "maximized" key and ensure it is unchecked.
5.  Locate the "fullscreen" key and ensure it is unchecked.
11. Exit gconf-editor.
12. Start Aisleriot Solitaire.  It should come up in 
non-fullscreen/non-maximized mode.
