can someone please help me with full screen mode. On my system if I

screen and then it skips large chunks of movement in the update.
As others have suggested, try starting out in full screen mode rather
than starting with a smaller window and expanding it to full screen.
To draw an opengl window your system needs to allocate some big
buffers on your video card. If you resize the window, the system has
to toss those buffers and reallocate larger ones. But if you are near
the edge of your video card capacity already, there might not be a big
enough chunk available for the newer larger window (since most of your
cards memory is already allocated.) But if you start out full screen
you often can find big enough chunks.
Im pretty sure --enable-fullscreen is for 3dfx cards. Try
--enable-game-mode
Actually --enable-fullscreen is for use with an SDL based FlightGear,
--enable-game-mode is for a Glut based FlightGear.

OOPS :)
