[satipera]

while playing sauerbraten the game plays fine in full screen with about 170 fps, but then after a while it reduces to a small window and the buttons do not affect what is happening in that small screen bu t it stills runs, could someone please help me to stop this happening.

Disable compiz if it's activated. I had exactly the same problem with it.

If it's already deactivated, just play the game in a screen, and set the desktop to the same resolution as the game. That way, it looks fullscreen, and it probably won't crash.

disabling compiz did the trick thanks very much.

There are two solutions for this. Try one of these:

1. Start Advanced Compiz Settings and disable "Unredirect Fullscreen Windows" in "General Options --> General".
2. Second solution is here http://ph.ubuntuforums.com/showpost....2&postcount=10
