How to control maximus preferences in Ubuntu Netbook Remix
Ubuntu netbook remix includes maximus, which is an application that maximizes all the new windows and removes the decoration, this is is very good to make it easier to work with small screens, and even to save space in regular screens, the last is my case…
Well but sometimes maximus might annoy you because it maximizes all windows, even the ones that where designed to be small.
There is no maximus icon or preferences at first sight, but you can find it under the hood, via the gconf-editor:
So open the gconf-editor with the command:
gconf-editor
open /apps/maximus
You will see some options, that can help you to select applications that you don’t want to get maximized, you can keep decoration, and you can stop automatic maximization…play with that.
Thanks. Very useful
