Since upgrading to F38 thunderbird won't start maximized nor does remember the y size of its window. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. delete xulstore.json to be sure 2. start thunderbird (it starts maximized to the left half of the screen) 3. press the "maximize" button or resize the window manually 4. restart thunderbird Actual Results: thunderbird starts not maximized (or whatever the last size was), not even half-maximized Expected Results: thunderbird starts maximized (or whatever the last size was) When resizing the thunderbird window by drawing it to the maximum x and y sizes, thunderbird remembers the x but not the y size. Removing xulstore.json didn't help. Using Gnome and Xorg.
It seems to affect not only thunderbird but other applications as well. I'm closing the bug report and investigating further.
