Heh, indeed. However, would adding it to the hard-coded list make it available if SDL can't do the detection correctly?

On my system, the list of available resolutions is _exactly_ the same as the hard coded list.


I would grab the source and have a play but my internet connection won't allow it this month. :-(

you can start the game with parameters to set whatever screen resolution you want... look it up in the forum

(or at the top of this thread)

I was more meaning to help any newcomers to the game that might run into this problem. I'll have a play around and provide a patch (if it works) when I get decent net again.

Szpak:
Do you have more than one monitor? If yes try:

--- Code: ---SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD=0 ufo
--- End code ---

Btw, maybe this option should be set by default in a run script for Linux?

Yes - 2 monitors. Primary is left.

.... and it didn't help. Still have a small area displayed in the bottom left of a full screen window.

I've now got the source down from git so when I have some time (hopefully this week) to get compiling working, I'll try adding 1080p to the list of resolutions and see if that helps.
