i suggest posting to one of the loki newsgroups on this. every loki game i have used has done fullscreen properly. when you post i suggest you post your XF86Config as well. or email [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm not sure about the newsgroup for that game but i participate often in the unreal tournament newsgroup its quite active .. in the end you shouldn't even have to think about doing what your wanting to do(you can probably do this by launching X as root via xinit -- :1 or something similar on another VT which will load X without anything on that terminal, then you can go back to the other X, export DISPLAY=localhost:1.0 ; xhost +localhost and run any commands you want ..) but in the end you shouldn't need to do this all of loki's games handle this right provided the modeline(s) are available. maybe its a bug ?>? i havent tried that game myself. games i have tried: Civilization (loki's version forgot the full name) Unreal Tournament Quake 3 Arena Simcity 3000 Myth II Heavy Gear all of them worked flawlessly. my machines run 3dfx cards btw, i noticed you had a S3 savage 4 ..(?) nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
