I'm having a strange problem... I can't get ET to go completely fullscreen for me. So far I've done the obvious, which is making sure Options->System->Fullscreen is set to yes, setting to no then setting it to yes and restarting, hand editing the config file, and none of it helps. I don't think the problem lies in the game config, I think it has something to do with my setup. the ET console output doesn't contain any warnings or errors, except this line:

Xlib: extension "XFree86-VidModeExtension" missing on display ":0.0"

researching the VidMode extension didn't help much, but from the name it definitely sounds like this could be my problem. other than this, I have no leads. any suggestions?

in your XF86Config file do you have several modes listed?

"1280x1024" "1024x768" etc?

I had the exact same problem until 5 minutes ago!
Make sure these lines are in your xorg.conf or whatever:
Code:

SubSection  "extmod"
EndSubSection

they are commented out by default (and probably for good reason, but never mind that now!).
then restart X and voilà!

now if only i could get the sound working... :?
