Totem is locked in full screen mode and though it shows the option to "leave full screen" mode nothing happens when clicked. Also nothing happens when "Esc" is pressed.  There is no option to minimize so to gain access to the desktop you must close totem.

How do you get to that state? Which version of metacity, GTK+ and Totem are you using?

When I click to open it or if I click on a file totem plays, it opens in full screen mode. I once clicked full screen mode and it has never gone back. 

Totem 2.20.0

GTK+ 2.12.0-1ubuntu3

Metacity 1:2.20.0-0ubuntu3 

Movie player 0.10.14

In reading bug 477529 the complaint is that a VOLUME POP-UP won't close "NOT EVEN LEAVING FULLSCREEN MODE HELPS" thus in bug 477529 they can leave fullscreen mode. 

Where as in this bug (525638) FULLSCREEN MODE CAN NOT BE LEFT the program can only be in FULLSCREEN MODE or closed. Not windowed nor minimized just closed. 

Please consider reopening this bug.(525638)

If these two different problems are linked to the same root cause it might help to add this side effect to the bug description of (477529).



Thank you for your time.

It's the same code, and there's no need to yell. The effects are explained in the bug itself.
Comment 6 strangehue 2008-04-03 00:12:26 UTC 
The capitalization was to highlight the differences in the problem descriptions, as this plain text. 

It was not meant as yelling. 

I apologize for any confusion.  (In reply to comment #5)
