[Bug 631696] Re: maximus should only run in netbook-session and not start in gnome-session

 

@Oliver, we may be at cross-purposes.  Maximus seems like a good "pixel-
conserving" solution for users who have small screens even when they
can't/won't use Unity.  I installed Maximus without UNE, and I had a
reasonable expectation that it would start automatically.  I'm just an
old IT-vet who sometimes installs packages, not a Gnome hacker.  I'm not
trying to recommend how others should use Ubuntu, just trying to point
out that the last config change had a surprising result for me, and I
hadn't realised that my use case was seen as anomalous.

I've followed your advice and manually added it to Startup Applications
in an enabled state without problem.  Perhaps a note regarding this
could be added to the package description and/or man page.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-session

I am using the 10.10 beta image for armel (OMAP) with ubuntu-netbook. By default it uses the une-efl session, where apps are maximized by default. 

after logging out and logging into with the standard desktop session, apps are still maximized, and I think they should not.
