I recnetly installed Quake 4. It was relatively straight forward and havn't had any problems unitl now. For some reason, it has started loading displaying a small display. The game now uses just over half of my screen.

I should mention that I am using dapper. I don't know if the problem has anything to do with any updates that might have been installed recently?

If someone could help out i would be relly grateful.

OK, I found this:

So I suppose it's a known bug for any OpenGL apps. But until it's fixed is there a way that I can revert back to an old driver?

At one point in Breezy I had quake 4 not using the entire screen. I changed the resolution to match the same I was running my desktop in and that actually fixed it for me.

If you mean change the settings in the actual game. I have tried that over and over. It does change the resolution but still within the small part of the screen with the same huge black border around it. ](*,)

Maybe it's just me. I haven't found a single post on this forum about this problem.
I have removed and installed the nvidia drivers.
I cacn't think what else to do?

Is anyone else here having the same problem?
