No fullscreen

The game won't go to full screen for me. I have it set to full screen as well.

Ubuntu 10.04

You checked the resolution of RO is the same or lower than your current resolution of ubuntu?

Grimloe · 11-08-2010, 02:12 AM

It's lower.

This happened to me once. I removed game.cfg and let the client generate a new one with default settings. I then changed all the settings back to how it was before (via client) and all was good again.

Unfortunately I didn't have the same luck

Are you on nVidia hardware?
Are you using compiz (Ubuntu 10.04 → answer is probably yes)?

I've found problems with fullscreen apps in general and the nVidia drivers on compiz when the option "Unredirect fullscreen windows" is on. Unfortunately nVidia's redirected OpenGL performance can only be described as atrociously horrible (or your choice of synonyms), so in this case you could try turning desktop effects off in the Appearance (I think) preferences.
