Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
What did you guys do? This is similar to bug 230382. Firefox comes up full screen, but no borders show and I can't resize window. Also I lose both window task bars. The only way I can see anything but firefox is to quit fire fox! I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 and the latest update seems to have screwed things up. I guess at this point my best bet is to get rid of firefox 3 and back up to firefox 2. Use 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu'?? Crap -- I can't even get out of firefox.

Ok -- now I'm confused. This problem seems to have gone
away, but I uninstalled Firefox 3.0 using synaptic and
installed Firefox2 but when I start Firefox and check the
version using help->about it says it's using
Gecko/2008061015 Firefox/3.0.
