Ubuntu 11.04 - Windowed fullecreen
#1
I've been using a small bash script and wmctrl to start xbmc on my second monitor in fullscreen without mouse lock.

After I upgraded to 11.04 windowed fullscreen does not work. Horizontally you get fullscreen, not vertically. There is a space at the bottom of the screen where I can see my wallpaper

very strange

Heres the script

Quote:#! /bin/bash

STATUS=0
WINCLASS=xbmc.bin.xbmc.bin
DISPLAY=:0.1
SLEEPDELAY=1


/usr/bin/xbmc "$@" &

while [ $STATUS -eq 0 ]
do
sleep $SLEEPDELAY
STATUS=`wmctrl -x -l | grep $WINCLASS | wc -l | awk '{print $1}'`
done

wmctrl -x -r $WINCLASS -b toggle,fullscreen

Not sure if this is the same issue because

Quote:gconftool --type Boolean --set /apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options/launcher_autohide true

does not solve my problem
