Public bug reported:
After recent updates, a few of them are to Compiz-related packages, it seems
like SDL applications can't work probably with fullscreen mode in the native
resolution of 1280x1024.
What happens is that they simply switch to windowed mode. That doesn't happen
with lower resolutions if they're set from the beginning, nor when Compiz is
disabled.
Tested applications: DOSBox, EDuke32, JFShadowWarrior, my own (sort of) Snake
game.
I guess it would occur with (almost) all of the SDL applications, but tell if
someone wants a link to one of the above specific games, tell me.
DOSBox - No problem, apt-get install dosbox
** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New

SDL applications auto-leave fullscreen if set to native 1280x1024 resolution
and Compiz is enabled.
