Description
Hi,

This probably is two independent bugs, but I'm reporting them together because what doesn't work in one version works in the other, and vice-versa so hopefully that will help with debugging.

I am running both 2.5 release version and 2.6 development version in 1920x1080 mode. 2.5 sets up the UI correctly, and by that I mean that the control panel is aligned all the way to the right edge of the monitor (and the globe is properly centered). When I load up 2.6, however, the UI control panel is stuck just offset from the middle of the screen, like the panel thinks the resolution is 1280x1024 (approximately) or something like that. The panel sits over the far eastern edge of the globe on the screen covering the globe slightly and there is about a third of the screen between the right edge of the screen and the right edge of the control panel that is just showing the star field. The moon and sun rotate around the earth across the whole 1920x1080 screen. This also causes a problem if you click the message window button to make it display the message list all the time as the message list now hides the buttons on the control panel and you can't click it again to get rid of it because the message window is on top of it. The message window realizes the screen is 1920x1080, it seems to just be the control panel that doesn't.

But, version 2.5 does not take over the full screen and leaves the task bar showing at the bottom of the screen, while version 2.6 takes over the full screen and properly hides the task bar. So each does a piece of it correctly.

I should also mention that I run in multimonitor mode in a somewhat strange situation with two xservers instead of one unified desktop across them both. I'm running in Mint 16, btw. The log output below shows my video configuration.
Steps to reproduce this issue
Just startup the game. Hers is the loging info. I abreviated some of it to keep it shorter.

''Here is some of the output of the 2.5 version showing the resolution.''

I don't see anything else in the output related to resolution, but the two outputs look pretty identical. I can generate some more output if you think it will help, but hopefully with the two versions each having a piece that works you'll be able to track it down quickly.
