arpi, i like metacity a lot, and i'd like to send a bugreport to the
creator, but what should i tell him?

the argument mplayer doesn't come back from fullscreen doesn't really
help, because xine and -vo sdl come back without problems...

so could you show me a source code snippet which should work but doesn't
work, or something like that?


thanks,
gabor

That's life for you, said McDunn.  Someone always waiting for someone 
who never comes home.  Always someone loving something more than that 
thing loves them.  And after awhile you want to destroy whatever 
that thing is, so it can't hurt you no more.
