Bug Description

Binary package hint: qiv

Viewing some images fullscreen causes the following terminal output: "(qiv:18951): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead".

To reproduce: run qiv on a jpg image from a terminal and press "f" a few times. Watch the terminal. (It doesn't work with all jpgs, try a few different jpgs if necessary).

In .xsession-errors I'm getting:

Window manager warning: meta_window_activate called by a pager with a 0 timestamp; the pager needs to be fixed.
Window manager warning: Treating resize request of legacy application 0x4800040 (qiv: Deskt) as a fullscreen request

Could qiv be using deprecated library calls?

qiv 2.2.2-1, up to date Ubuntu 10.04 on 32 bit hardware.

Does qiv set _NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN?

"OOo is not setting _NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN so compiz is refusing to
allow it to resize to cover the panel, as it is supposed to. Metacity
appears to have a hack for this as when entering presentation mode it
says "Window manager warning: Treating resize request of legacy
application 0x44045cc (OpenOffice) as a fullscreen request".

We have disabled this workaround in compiz as it causes other problems
(with totem, for example)."
