empathy maximization from tray icon bug

[Brian Curtis]

Binary package hint: empathy

With an updated Ibex (Sept 3 2008), when I click the empathy tray icon to minimize empathy, upon clicking the tray icon again to maximize it moves down the screen a little bit, if you keep clicking the tray icon to minimize and maximize, you can easily notice the bug in the placement of empathy upon each maximization.

Is this still occuring for you? Is the issue the same as the one described in the GNOME bug (i.e. the window position is not remembered) or is this something else?

this bug occurs only with compiz enabled, for details see the video, this describes it all.
While it only seems to occur with empathy, its rather a compiz bug!

according to original reporter the bug is no longer experienced by him.

(17:52:52) bcurtiswx: since im the reporter i don't want to do this.. but bug #264405 i don't experience anymore so idk if it can be invalidated or not

however karlrt seems to be affected

as in karmic, there is no tray icon for empathy no more, only the normal window list on the bottom, trying to move the empathy-window by maximising-minimising didnt work, so i suspect its fixed for me too.

closing the bug since that works now
