Version: 0.8.91 (using KDE KDE 3.2.91) Installed from: Gentoo Packages After maximizing a conversation window, you can still do horizontal resize, but no vertical resize is possible. This only happens for a kopete conversation window, all other windows/apps have no problem with the resize.
Some more info to reproduce: Open a chat window - maximize window - close chat window - exit kopete (settings are saved) - startup kopete again - open a chatwindow -> unable to vertically resize the maximized chat window Temporary resolution: exit kopete - remove the [KopeteChatWindow] section from the ~/.kde3.3/share/config/kopeterc file - start kopete (chatwindow settings are reset)
Reproducible. I duplicated the problem following your instructions.
Please note that once you get a window stuck this way, it doesn't matter how many times you restart Kopete or in what state you leave the chatwindow when you quit, you cannot ever size a window below full screen width (you can size it _larger_ than screen width though...).
