I have been using GIMP for many months and I have just realised that I do not have the means to minimise the window, I wonder why? I am using Ubuntu 7.10 and GIMP 2.4.2.

Minimizing windows is a function of the desktop window manager. GIMP doesn't control that though it can make suggestions about it to the window manager. Look under File->Preferences and then choose Window Management. The Hint for the Toolbox should be "Normal Window". If it's set to "Utility Window" then you probably won't have the minimize options, depending on how your window manager handles the hints.
