Bug#234655: nautilus: Nautilus window-size affects gnome-desktop size

[Margarita Manterola]

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.4.2-2
Severity: important

When the last time that nautilus was maximized, it was in 800x600 size,
the next time it's launched, the active desktop environment is 800x600
even if the desktop itself has launched in 1024x768.

This is important, because it leads to strange errors, as icons not
being allowed to live outside an invisible line.  Also, you might think
this is an uncommon situation, but it's actually quite common when you
have ThinClients and people access their desktops through different
terminals, with different resolutions.

I hope someone can take a look at this.
