--- Comment #6 from David O'Shea <doshea1978 hotmail com>  2009-02-20 12:21:03 ---
Same problem seen under Fedora 10 with kdebase-4.1.4-2.fc10.i386,
compiz-0.7.8-4.fc10.i386, compiz-fusion-0.7.8-2.fc10.i386.

When I went into the Compiz Fusion Icon's menu, selected Settings Manager, then
category "Utility", then "Workarounds" (which was already checked) and
un-checked "Legacy Fullscreen Support" this seemed to fix the problem -
immediately those applications which were starting full-screen started
maximised instead.  The tooltip for this checkbox says "Make Wine and legacy
applications fullscreen properly." but otherwise I don't yet know if disabling
the workaround has caused any problems.

I did notice that the applications which start maximised will, when restored,
still take up the full screen.

The issue seems to affect the KDE applications I've used (Konsole, Dolphin,
"System Settings") but not Firefox - I'm not sure if this is because the latter
is a GTK application.
