I'm with Anonymissimus on this one. When a program launches in fullscreen mode right away then blocks your desktop with a black screen because of some driver issues - well, that's rather frustrating.

Fullscreen is a bad idea. Sometimes the default resolution some program starts with isn't even supported by the monitor, which means that before even being able to change the resolution to something supported or to deactivate fullscreen I need some research to find out how to do that by command line or by editing some text file, if it is possible at all. Of course it is in the case of wesnoth, but that's hard blockage for a new player. cheers, anonymissimus _______________________________________________ Wesnoth-dev mailing list Wesnoth-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wesnoth-dev
