but there is not the "x" button to increase, decrease etc the window

[Rémi Denis-Courmont (rdenis)]

The system menu is provided by the window manager, not by VLC.

On KDE, you can reach the system menu with Alt+F3. Then you can disable full screen mode from Advanced -> Full screen mode. The procedure depends on your window manager.

It's a bug in wxwidgets package

[Timmy Shih Jun Yee (shijun)]

VLC does not depend on wxwidgets.
