Description
Reported by a number of downstream Ubuntu users: if you have a decently powerful desktop that you run your front-end on, the gnome panel shows all the time if you have compiz enabled. I believe they changed how the "go fullscreen" signal is handled a version or two ago.

This bug is still present in branch master running on Ubuntu 10.10 with Compiz enabled. I believe that it's down to a bug in Compiz which needs the window to be visible before the window state is changed to fullscreen. The attached patch fixes this bug.

Can someone please reopen this ticket for tracking?
This fix was fixed in 3ad6c81aa83491b7e6d2d54c15daf16894a72299 but then reverted in 003fc8fb14acc9a6c4aeea2001d33d4cdb3c253d until a better solution could be found.


And when we switched to QT4 we started to use the correct fullscreen flag, so unless someone has changed that since I fixed it, I'm at a loss to explain this as a bug. I cannot replicate with KDE 4.
Does anyone using gnome _not_ have a problem? We need to rule out gnome/ubuntu bugs.
