Hi,

What seems to happens is that if you close glines (or any of the gnome
games it seems) when maximised, it will start up maximised. Pressing
maximise/unmaximise will now only toggle between the two states. It will
not change the size of the window, as the unmaximised size of the window
now is the same as the size of a maximised window.

You can work around this by making sure the window is unmaximised, and
resize the window manually.

This behaviour is indeed confusing, so I will file this as a bug with
the upstream developers.
