[Bug 1800749] Re: Ubuntu 18.10 doesn't like fullscreen mode for sauerbraten(game)
The bug started Ubuntu 18.10 and continues in 19.04 with all updates applied as of the date of this comment. Again, it seems like the Ubuntu Desktop, as of 18.10, is continuously(once a second) hijacking the mouse and keyboard from Sauerbraten when running in full-screen mode.

[Bug 1800749] Re: Ubuntu 18.10 doesn't like fullscreen mode for sauerbraten(game)
Correction: not _epoll_, but _poll_. Again, it was a hack at trouble-
shooting and may be unrelated.
Sorted Sauerbraten strace log snip:
---
11 poll([{fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1)= 1 ([{fd=7, revents=POLLIN}])
11 poll([{fd=7, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=7,
revents=POLLOUT}])
11 poll([{fd=8, events=POLLIN}], 1, -1)= 1 ([{fd=8, revents=POLLIN}])
11 poll([{fd=8, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=8,
revents=POLLOUT}])
---
Generated by stracing sauerbraten in fullscreen mode, counting 10 rogue
mouse pointer flickers, and exiting game.

[Bug 1800749] Re: Ubuntu 18.10 doesn't like fullscreen mode for sauerbraten(game)
It appears that the xinput devices(keyboard/mouse) are being hijacked by desktop? As long as there is user input(keyboard/mouse activity) at least once second within Sauerbraten, everything works as expected in Ubuntu 18.10. Further bug info: I noticed that if you're moving forward with the 'w' key(with no mouse activity), and jump(press 'spacebar') while keeping the 'w' key pressed, the bug returns about a second later. The forward movement stops and the rogue mouse pointer returns to flickering, as if there is no user activity, or as if the user input activity has been cleared/reset. ***If you _don't_ jump while moving forward, the forward movement continues as expected and the rogue mouse pointer stays away. When there is no user input/activity for about 1 second, the flickering mouse pointer returns. Again, everything works as expected in Ubuntu 18.04. Thanks! PS. Sorting straces of Sauerbraten seem show a similar number of epoll calls as flickers of the rogue mouse pointer, but that was a hack at trouble-shooting and may be unrelated.

A little more info: _As soon as_ you switch sauerbraten(multiverse package) to fullscreen(Step 3, above) in Ubuntu 18.10, the system mouse pointer starts the flickering in the middle of the screen(about once a second). While moving the _game_ mouse pointer around, like in circles, the system mouse pointer ceases to flicker/interrupt the game. Once you stop moving the game mouse pointer around, the flickering of the system mouse pointer returns. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1800749 Title: Ubuntu 18.10 doesn't like fullscreen mode for sauerbraten(game) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1800749/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I'm not sure if it's related, but graphic games under dosbox, such as Scorched Earth, fail to capture the mouse in Ubuntu 18.10. They work fine(mouse is captured/functional) in Ubuntu 18.04*. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1800749 Title: Ubuntu 18.10 doesn't like fullscreen mode for sauerbraten(game) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1800749/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
