In my case, it looks like unclutter isn't installed here. Anyway, Compiz
is disabled for now (and the resolution is again 1280x1024).

EHm, isn't this a duplicate? Doesn't this happen _whenever_ the
resolution of the game is equal to that of the desktop, if running
compiz?
Current workarounds:
- run games in a different resolution, than your desktop
- do not use compiz
- turn off auto redirect fullscreen applications..
I've selected System - Preferences - Advanced Desktop Effects Settings
(I think it's available from a compizconfig-backend-gconf package; Otherwise, I
guess e.g. gconf-editor can be used),
selected General Options and then unchecked Unredirect Fullscreen Windows.
Afterwards I've re-enabled Compiz
I've changed the desktop resolution to 1024x768 (without rebooting or
restarting), and now I get the same problem with a resolution of 1024x768.
In addition, could be related although I'm not sure (tested on an EDuke32
snapshot from April 1st, but could happen in other applications as well):

Sorry for not telling about that before, but now I can mention one more problem
(occurs in EDuke32 and icculus.org/duke3d):
It looks like something goes wrong with the mouse cursor, although the behavior
may depend on the game.

I had similar problems before. Mine were worked around by making sure
that the screen saver was disabled. Also, you will get strange mouse
behavior if you're using the program unclutter while you have opengl
and some sdl games open, either windowed or fullscreen.

Maybe this bug is for 1280x1024 and higher resolutions. If possible,
please set your desktop and game to 1024x768. See if this will fix your
problem,

Would like to point out that this isn't limited to 1280x1024 resolution.
Had this happened few times with Quake4/ET:QW on my native 1920x1200,
although it doesn't happen always and most of the time I can play on
fullscreen just fine.

Can confirm it for ballistics, bomberclone and FretsOnFire.
While waiting for a real solution, maybe a little nocompiz script helps, can be
linked to /usr/local/bin so that problematic programs can be run by nocompiz
fretsonfire e.g.
#!/bin/bash
# Starts a programm having problems with compiz
I confirm this bug too. When Compiz is enabled, all fullscreen SDL games set to
the native resolution of my desktop (1280x1024) window automatically.
Tested with Frets On Fire, Battle for Wesnoth, Neverball and Extreme Tux Racer.

I started World of Padman with default resolution 1024x768 at
fullscreen. Game starts fine and it's playable for about 10-15 minutes
and then suddenly it jumps to windowed mode and all controls are lost -
must reset X to continue.
On 1280x1024 Fullscreen it wont be playable at all. It changes
Confirmed, I see this with xmoto.
