I can reproduce this on a Centos 5 VM. This is interesting. The firefox window has a WM_NORMAL_HINTS which specifies a maximum size of 32767x32767. Currently, the maximize control on the window frame is supposed to be disabled if a maximum size is specified at all, but it looks like that wasn't quite working correctly until recently. I've adjusted the logic a little bit so that the maximize control is not disabled if a maximum size is specified, but it's larger (in both dimensions) than the Windows virtual desktop size (as then maximization will not exceed the maximum size specified) I've built a snapshot with this change. Perhaps you could try that and see if it improves things for you? ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwinx/x86/XWin.20150804-git-862bf7a8412567ae.exe.bz2 ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwinx/x86_64/XWin.20150804-git-862bf7a8412567ae.exe.bz2 -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
