[kaffeine-user] fullscreen and back problems with icewm

[Mikhail R. <mr...@ra...>]

Hello,

This is most likely an icewm issue - but for whatever reason,
triggered only by kaffeine. With kate, which uses the same qt library
and also has a full screen mode, this does not happen. If I could know
what causes this, I could try and fix in icewm.

I have Debian lenny. On it, I have icewm built from etch (1.2.29pre1),
and the rest of the stuff native to lenny: Qt 3.3.8b, KDE 3.5.10,
Kaffeine 0.8.7.

(Icewm was built from etch because I was told of the icewm tray bug
that affects lenny and even sid.)

I find that if I set kaffeine to full screen and then back, it will
change size in bizarre ways - sometimes becoming very small, sometimes
very big, and sometimes small one way and big another (like a thin
horizontal or vertical strip).

This does not happen to kaffeine under other WMs. Checked with XFCE.

I found an old bug report on this, closed as Invalid with no explanation:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100031&aid=1567566&group_id=31

Is there a way to fix this? Or a workaround?

(As a workaround I tried setting kaffeine.geometry in winoptions, but
it did not work).
