I run Fx 30.0 on Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 desktop edition LTS. Have done so for the past few months without problems.

Just as I returned from a short vacation during, which my machine was off, Fx started launching exclusively in Full-screen mode. I have no access to either the menu bar (above) or to any control. The only thing I can do to get out of Fx is kill the process with > kill -9 [PID #], or close every tab using the keyboard shortcut CTRL + W.

I want to get rid of that full screen mode. Can somebody tip me on how to do so ? - cheers-

Hi Aman, Thank you for the pointer. I had not dug into the arcanes of localstore.rdf before and I learnt a few things. However the correct answer in my case had nothing to do with localstore.rdf. Rather, hitting F11, a short-cut I did not know, reverted from full screen to normal X-window view. Cheers.

( I am not sure about whether this is a Firefox or an Ubuntu issue, so I also posted on http://ubuntuforums.org.)

You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file.
