Windowed in linux (Debian)

Post by 6 year old boy! »

Ok, I have been running debian for a few months nowl. However, I can't run bzflag fullscreen, when i try it freaks and I have to reboot (or kill bz ). So after fooling around I windowed bzflag and it worked fine. This problem is only resent ( after debian install ). So for a few months I have just windowed bzflag to avoid the problem. Although I can live with it I am curious as to what the problem is, in hopes that it can be fixed. Any idea as what is going on? Also if anyone else is having trouble please say so.

GF4 // latest drivers from nvidia and X
1024 * 968 res // under limit


Thanks for your time

I think you should wait for 1.12 . I'm quite sure it will cure your problem as that is "SDL" enabled.
