  Whole screen covered and has no borders or titlebar when using compiz

Bug description:
  OpenOffice.org 2.3.0-1ubuntu2

  When I start OpenOffice it expands to the whole screen and hides everything (including the Panel). The windows has no borders and no titlebar.
  The dialogs also sometimes hide the whole screen, but still remain mostly in original size in the upper left corner. (see attachment)

  I am currently running Kubuntu 7.10 with compiz
  (0.6.0+git20071004-0ubuntu1), compiz-fusions (0.5.2-20070928-0ubuntu2)
  and emerald (0.3~git20070717-oubuntu1) on Intel video card.

  
  possible workarounds :

  Install the "Advanced desktop effects settings" package (Compiz desktop effects control panel), you can just go to add/remove applications for this.
  In this control panel:
  - Enable "Workarounds"
  - Within "Workarounds", disable "Legacy full screen support"

  
  or, if you are willing to remove your openoffice settings, you can try the following command
  mv ~/.openoffice.org2 ~/.openoffice.org2.bak
