[Bug 273333] [NEW] Firefox window misplaced on first start

[der_vegi]

Public bug reported:

I am using Intrepid Alpha 6 (amd64).

When I first started Firefox after a fresh installation of Intrepid, the
window was misplaced: It was so far on the top left of the screen, that
the window titlebar was out of the desktop. I could only put it back
into reach of my mouse by clicking on the frame and using "Maximize".

This also happens often, when I click on a link that opens a new window:
Sometimes I only see the lowest part of the status bar. I can easily
reproduce this on the website www.tagesschau.de. When I open an article
which has also a video attached and I click on "Weitere Video-Formate",
the new window is placed beyond the top of my screen. Direct link for
example: http://www.tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/finanzkrisepolitik106.html
.

Maybe I should mention, that my screen resolution is 1280 x 800. Any
more information I can provide?
