Alt-Enter doesnt work, and cant find it should, isnt it only for winOS? I run rt2 in fullscreen, and it appears --windowed option doesnt work, just tried. Next time game will lock ill try X kill or Ctrl+Alt+Esc if it isnt the same, but meanwhile i found where to turn off that amaroK OSD thingy, it was bothering me anyway :) Can you explain why linux32 part isnt needed? martins -- Linux 2.6.15-ck3-r1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ 03:43:59 up 21:13, 5 users, load average: 0.19, 0.31, 0.74 -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
