In the past with Debin and Glut, specifying --enable-game-mode has always worked for me as expected. But now I'm trying to do the same thing with freeglut-2.2.0 and Fedora Core 4.

Don't know if it has anything to do with it:

Maybe your glut doesn't understand the "preferred" format.

I run fgfs with SDL, but not with the built-in "fullscreen" mode,
but manually set to screensize. And I tell my window manager to omit
the window decoration. Don't know if this works with multiscreen.

I did some googling and poking around the freeglut mailing list and it does appear that freeglut's game-mode (fullscreen) is simply broken. There was a reference to OpenGLUT and it sounded like that may be seeing more development than freeglut? I don't track those projects closely so I don't know.

<sigh>

I found some original glut-3.7 rpms, installed those and everything works great. Bye, bye freeglut. :-)

Curt.
