 Hi,

 this is a minor annoyance. Mythtv is full-screen always but while using
 beryl window manager under gnome. It has always been the problem there. I
 have not set up separate resolutions for video and GUI, nor do I run it in
 windowed mode. Resolution is set to monitor max 1440x900. But still gnome-
 panel is always visible on screen and mythtv is little bit squeezed
 between top and bottom gnome-panel. Other applications (e.g. firefox) gets
 full-screen just fine, but mythtv doesn't. So I assume it's mythtv's
 misfeature.

 In other words, it looks like mythtv would put the image on some (wrong?)
 layer which then gets grabbed by beryl and it squeezes the layer in
 between the gnome-panels. Not that I know of X11 and if it has layers or
 not, but since beryl is 3d it might as well have...

 I watch mythtv via nvidia 6200 run with 9746 binary drivers, on 19"
 1440x900 resolution on up to date ubuntu 6.10 gnome with beryl. Same
 problem has existed with several versions of beryl. Mythtv version doesn't
 matter in this case, but I use trunk.

 I would have a screen-shot (37 kB), just don't know where to upload it...
 if anyone is interested I'm glad to mail it to you.
