I think I once again have Ubuntu Unity to thank. All evidence suggests that windows which try to open at 75% of screen size or over are automatically maximized (it used to be 60%!), and since my computer screen is quite small I assume this is what Tor Browser is trying to do. Apparently you can alter this by changing some experimental setting in the bowels of compiz, but really this is just another incentive to start using some other desktop. It strikes me that if the window size is really the only variable piece of information that Tor Browser exposes to the internet at large, it isn't a good idea to leave hapless Ubuntu users with small computers to fend for themselves (i.e. learn how to install another desktop environment). Until there's progress on #7255, do you think there should be at least a verbal warning about this somewhere? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJSM7e+AAoJEPIBzxrnTA33XPgQAK48H2/ER0vLIbjE0qWxRxsU AdvCuuKLaEHZp+8NjPaV7abvvOmOKs51zlax5q3szuXC/XRUYEKRdVzOvoVeLWAv VhKHcWxa+Leqf7WqHIgS7xRcJlcMB41FSPtHFeTPQycolFf0H8snUPf4li+IGEUz 3HLNbPOwREPaGS991RuJse4kbSrgEyxr2Ozhlo84Yqab4i/74qJqXpDOFIRfKhtj qyw9FgPm6zR5vRHGolgfmlNWjSjI/DpzpdkaK43jhIzimOcjRgrohdzFOVrwI0Ov /xjcZ2LbGlHJe1iOm+nE511Zy5IcbBN/y06cBVVUUZg2oSt6WZxwu+U88JIbmvGu FvmhpYq8q4dS6WL0S7qIz/deoHxl/lBRaDTXE1FTShZ8wObMYKbV35AYRhctuQaA BHlJjcT0uMIDyrzjkdA4MK4vA4VN84996FASxrMFTtNCp/doFaxJMwe5TsK0bCU3 e7cePzOCTtNfe7l+p3kE4GpjdFNhproGZrGajAc9G8KOA86hq5ew4fDC0gcCzEUA ILsWBgVV0vCz88iJyP+05NU09mCHOhGJlel5fKBn1YIARI4oP6NkasUQKlz0OToP cRNLFlpwXQ3GIz1DrRSngptEp5t5kT912SZmB5+bqwpILlTQ2D2NwDdPWVvGNgqJ 84LuDQ/FpOZQ8YRUTtnQ =sONt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsusbscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
