i have debian sid with compiz (0.2.2-1 from official repository and 3.2 from git) installed. when i try to minimize openoffice (2.0.4) that has in addition to main window two other small windows (form tool and another one), i have a problem: compiz minimizes only principal window and manages other windows as separate windows (and so it doesn't minimize them with openoffice). it happens also with other applications (ex: avidemux when it's encoding). also, in gconf, i try to put all types of windows in minimize plugin but things don't change. same thing happens with beryl 0.1.1 and 0.1.2.
i have installed last nvidia binary for my nvidia mx/mx 400 (64 mb) card. if is it necessary other informations i can give them.
I make a change to minimizeWindow function in window.c file and now minimize of transient windows in openoffice works, but i don't now if my "patch" is right and i don't know if it can create other problems. my change is: void minimizeWindow (CompWindow *w) { if (!(w->actions & CompWindowActionMinimizeMask)) return; to void minimizeWindow (CompWindow *w) { if (!(w->actions | CompWindowActionMinimizeMask)) return; i make this, because, if i understand, CompWindowActionMinimizeMask define if windows has or no button to minimize (or something similar) and openoffice transient windows don't have this button so... am i right or i say an unsense?
isn't this the same as https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9072 which is already fixed?
Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys. Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.
Not sure about the dupe, but the bug is currently fixed with SVN Head
