(Get the code!)
Hi,
1. I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 on an Acer Aspire One. KDE 4.2 (beta, I suppose) was installed from Kubuntu experimental repositories.
2. Trying a number of different applications, it seems only the KDE-apps that I have used when logged into KDE are problematic, i.e. korganizer, konqueror, kjots, systemsettings.
I logged back into KDE, opened up those same apps, finding nothing strange in their behaviour, then went back to Gnome, and the problem seemed to be gone. Doing this a few times I got different results, and then I realized maximus gets started in in KDE as well...
Anyway, it seems that apps which just start one window (no tips or anything, e.g. konqueror, korganizer, k) start up the first time (including under KDE) just maximised. Second (counting also opening in KDE) and subsequent times the window opens over the whole screen in Gnome with Compiz on.
Do the KDE apps set some flag in the apps themselves to show up fullscreen when Maximus sets the "maximise" hint? That, I guess, could cause the described effect.
