I also confirm this bug. Other ways to reproduce this bug and a video are included in duplicate bug 235900 .
Also a important note which could explain why some people gets this bug while other people don't : This bug is not reproducible with all screen resolutions. Ex. It's not possible to reproduce it with 1680x1050, but it can be reproduced with 1280x1024. |
You certainly can't run wmii with compiz - they're both window managers, and you can only run one window manager at a time.
It looks like the people who have re-opened this bug are actually experiencing a Firefox bug that curiously doesn't manifest under Metacity. If I had to make a guess, I'd say it's due to differing "legacy fullscreen" support. It might be useful for people who can reproduce this bug to attach (not inline, please!) the output of "xprop" on the firefox window. |

Binary package hint: compiz
If Firefox is running when Desktop Effects are enabled on my Dell Inspiron 6000 or my HP zd7000, Firefox becomes an unresponsive window with no window decorations. It's not possible to maximize, move it, or otherwise interact with it. Disabling Desktop Effects restores sanity.
I retest desktop-effects every couple weeks, and this problem persists. Since firefox is probably the single most important application used by most users, this problem pretty much guarantees no casual user will use Desktop Effects.
I realize this is a beta, and this will probably be fixed before RC, but wanted to make sure this simple but serious bug was in the issue tracker, since I didn't see any obvious duplicates, except for one rejected issue. |

I retest desktop-effects every couple weeks, and this problem persists. Since firefox is probably the single most important application used by most users, this problem pretty much guarantees no casual user will use Desktop Effects.
**Steps to reproduce :
1. Open a single instance of Firefox with no tabs open.
2. Go to http://www.htmlgoodies.com/legacy/beyond/javascript/bigsmall.html
3. Click the "Maximize" link located at the top left of this webpage.
4. Close Firefox.
5. Re-open Firefox.
6. Now the titlebar for Firefox and upper/lower panels should be missing.
Or
1. Use the bigger resolution that your computer can take and open Firefox.
2. If not already done, demaximize the Firefox window (right clic / Demaximize).
3. Close Firefox
4. Change the screen resolution for a very lower one.
5. Open Firefox
**Workaround : Install compizconfig-settings-manager , start ccsm, click on "Workarounds" plugin in the "Utility" section and uncheck "Legacy Fullscreen Support". |

Firefox should not tell the window manager to put the window at (0,0) at the request of javascript, because with the width and height set ust right this triggers the "legacy fullscreen support" feature of some window managers like compiz and wmii (something javascript should not be able to do.)
Suggested fix: when javascript requests to set the windows Y coordinate to 0 set it to 1 instead. |

**WORKAROUNDS : more permanent
1. Install compizconfig-settings-manager
2. start ccsm
3. click on "Workarounds" plugin in the "Utility" section
4. uncheck "Legacy Fullscreen Support".
or
1. F11 twice
2. resize the windows with the mouse. Once you've set them to the right size for you then go to
3. Edit - Preferences - Content - Enable JavaScript Advanced ...
4. UNtick the top (?) option which is "Move or resize window". This should prevent javascript from being able to resize your window inconviently
