Thank you very much, but tat won't do... 

First, the resulting window is too big because it doesn't take the border into 
account (I mean, the part where the buttons "minimize" and "maximize" and 
"close" are). Second, the height of the gnome-panel (or kicker) should be 
subtracted from gdk_screen_height... To use this method, at least I need to 
know the position of the panel and its size...

I am looking forward to additional suggestions... :-)
