My suggestion would be to make it a config file option defaulting to the current behaviour. That way users who don't know any better get 3D working full desktop, but get an error/warning to the log file if their resolution goes beyond what is supported. Users who know what they're doing and want 3D on part of the desktop anyway can force enable it. That seems to be less problematic for most people IMHO, no? Anyhow, just a bit of feedback/suggestion, I don't have any hard opinion any way about it... And of course nothing is written in stone so whatever you go with can always be changed again later depending on user feedback, etc. TTYL -- Mike A.
