I've seen that before with FG compiled against glut/freeglut on Linux - going to fullscreen mode breaks the hardware acceleration (binary nvidia drivers). I'm compiling against sdl now, and that works fine fullscreen. It's also possible to get an unadorned fullscreen window without using --enable-fullscreen by using kstart under kde.
