[Bug 866090] [NEW] Compiz Revert Some Fullscreen Game to Maximized Window on Game Open

 

Public bug reported:

I interested to play Spiral Knights game in Ubuntu, this game support
fullscreen playing, however the game return windowed after closing. So,
I should reconfigure the game to be in fullscreen every time before
playing. It was annoying, and it happen in Natty with Unity Session. So,
I think it was related to compiz. After looking hours for what compiz
plugin that cause the fullscreen game to be windowed, I found that
compiz workaround plugin -> legacy fullscreen support was not enabled by
default. So I enabled it and the game can now to start in fullscreen.
