Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.5

This is a bug in firefox. I went fullscreen and now I can't get my minimize maximize buttons back. I also cannot see my gnome panel bars above and below the browser window without resetting the browser to its defaults. There is no way to reset firefox from the settings in the browser itself--this is really really annoying. It is also nasty to not have access to the minimize and maximize buttons.

This is a pain in the ass.
