Full screen = Black Screen
Whenever I run an application full screen, I get a black screen. Any
idea how to fix this? I am on GNU/Linux. -- Daniel Berger Send files in free open formats. |

See if any bugs have been filed against it, for that behavior. 2) What XWindows extensions does the application use ? What extensions are called in full screen mode ? XV or Xinerama ? 3) xdpyinfo (shows compiled in extensions) /var/log/Xorg.0.log (shows XWindows startup) dmesg | less (may report early driver issues) (something related to kernel mode setting [KMS] for graphics) 4) Do you have source ? Can you turn on debugging in the application ? One movie player I tried to work on, had to be fed "debug" to ./configure, to get a tool with some printf's at runtime. Posting to a Linux group, is likely to get you an answer faster. HTH, Paul |
