I do know how to reset your resolution back to normal. You can do that with xrandr which has a '-s' option to set the 'size' (according to manpage) of the screen. You can use a size index or the resolution itself. Example: Code: xrandr -s 0 #Reset to index 0. This is what normally use xrandr -s1280x1024 #Reset to this 'size'. If you don't want to do this, my particular suggestion is that you run your game in an emulated desktop. Cheers, Jorl17
