2011-04-21 07:32:25 Deejay_TNT description I think this is the right place for this but (it doesn't look like a but in virt-manager, but rather a globalmenu/unity. When running Virtual Machine Manager and pressing on "fullscreen" button the window maximizes, but the top menu isn't functional anymore (e.g. I cannot go to "Normal View" in the menu - nor does it have a keyboard shortcut for this action). Therefore, I lose control of the workspace (cannot ALT-TAB either), and to get back to it I have to Ctrl-Alt-F1 to tty1 and kill the process manually. This will render using Virtual Machine Manager in fullscreen mode useless for novices, since going to tty1 to kill the process is not intuitive). This but might be a compiz bug, but not sure - posted here only. Reproduction: 1) Run Virtual Machine Manager 2) Connect to KVM server 3) Open any running virtual machine 4) Press fullscreen button (I'll attach a screenshot of the button below - but I CANNOT provide a screenshot of the fullscreen menu/bug itself - printscreen no longer works, cannot ALT-TAB anywhere.

UPDATE: if running "Ubuntu Classic" session (e.g. without unity/compiz) it works properly, but NOT in "Ubuntu" session with unity/compiz.
