           Summary: Un-maximizing xterm windows does nothing.
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.6
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jafo-kde at jafo.ca


Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.6.2) 
OS:                Linux

If I maximize an xterm window, either through clicking the maximize button, or
doing one of the key sequences I have mapped to maximize, max-width, or
max-height, I cannot un-maximize it.

So, I click the maximize button, the window gets big.  I click it again, the
window doesn't change in size.

Un-maximize works for Firefox or the kmixer, but not xterm.  NOTE: xterm was
*NOT* updated, it was definitely the KDE update to 4.6 that caused this.

This has worked fine for me over the last several years, and then Fedora
released the 4.6 update, and since then the ability to un-maximize has gone
away.  That happened April 4.  I have since upgraded another of my machines
from Ubuntu Maverick to Natty, which involved going to 4.6.2, and that machine
behaves the same as my Fedora 14 box.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Maximize a window.  Click the maximize button again.

Actual Results:  
Window remains maximized.

Expected Results:  
Window returns to previous size and position.

I have a video demonstrating this at http://jafo.tummy.com/kde-maximize.mpg,
recorded with my camera phone so it's not the best, but I think it should show
the basics.
