Hi!

Thanks Olivier for your quick answer. The only strange thing when i use
metacity w/ gnome-panel mplayer switch to fs perfectly. Under kde too.
Under icewm too. In fact maybe this is the only one combination i saw
when it doesn't :( So i can understand it's not xfwm4's 'fault', but is
there a way to solve it w/ these programs? I know i could use another
panel, but i'm used to gnome's. I'll examine ROX, but it'd be simly
strange for me if nobody else faced/solved this prob.

thans, hirisov
