[Bug 339789] Re: run in window option partially broken on 8.10

 

This is not the case in 9.10 with or without compiz. I was able to get a
borderless as well as a window mode mythtv frontend.

Bug description:
The 0.21.0+fixes19878-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu2 (weekly build) of the front-end running on Ubuntu 8.10 (w/Compiz) seems to have a problem with the "run in window" option, that doesn't exist on 8.04 (no Compiz).

Enabling the option, and setting the size settings, does produce a movable window for the front-end, but it is lacking "window decorations" - no title bar, border, etc.

Someone on IRC pointed out that you can work around the normally inconvenient process of moving the window via the context menu and keyboard by using alt-drag (hold down the alt key moving the window with the mouse).
