Any luck running full screen?

Post by Cat_7 »

Hello,

The latest cvs additions should allow us to run full screen, but I haven't been able to get it to work yet.
Only the older builds run smooth, the latest one just craches and locks up the whole machine, both in windowed and full screen mode.

Has anyone had better luck?

Gwenole said "Fullscreen now works in emulated PPC mode, only tested on 32-bit big endian target".

Macs are big endian, so I guess maybe it doesn't work on little endian systems (x86).

Question remains

Hello,

Alas the question of not being able to run the latest build remains.
I can't get the windowed modes running either.

Do you run it? Have you tried full screen?

I haven't had much time to try many Linux distros out to find one that appreciates all my hardware. And a recent loss of a 40 GB hard drive hasn't helped. But I hope to get something up and running (besides Cygwin) in the next few days. If someone else doesn't assist, I'll report back to you with my findings.
