I like to play exult but am experiencing some problems with it now.
When I ask it to switch to full screen mode, I indeed get fullscreen but the size of the game display is not larger: I just get a small exult rectangle in the middle of a black screen... The purpose of fullscreen is not to use a tiny 320x240 window and get readable dialogs, so I would like to get real fullscreen.
Actually, this used to work for me, so I guess something broke it, but I wonder what (I had not played in a long amount of time).

I have a powerbook 15". Here is my emerge info:

Code:

Ok, I got the solution: disable the option
Code:

option MergedFB

:D

Probably some bad interactions between fullscreen and mergedfg
