I too am a power user with Unix/Solaris/Linux professional experience
starting from the early 1970's. I am amazed at how well the Starling
works. I installed my usuals: gvim, ssh, sshfs, vifm, autojump. This was
to get the basic command line stuff and network connectivity going. Then
the gui intensive apps and games AND Polytonic Greek and Hebrew support.
It all worked fantastically well. The only problem was with maximus. I
like having windows that I control. I like small windows.

See bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maximus/+bug/362301

I tried changing preferences and disabling it from startup -- TO NO AVAIL. This 
is what finally worked (via the bash super user command line):
which maximus -- to find the location of the binary file (/usr/bin)
cd /usr/bin
chmod a-x maximus

This forced it to be unexecutable. So no more problems with those full
screen windows. It was very annoying.
