Desktop GUI Screencapture While Game Loads
#1
Facing an odd problem.

I am running AC 1.0.4 on Ubuntu 11.04.

When I try to load the game, it takes a screen capture of my desktop, and then puts it on while the games loads (so I cannot see the Assault Cube loading image). Moreover, it sticks like that even when the game is loaded. So even though I can hear gunshots, fire gunshots etc...I cannot see what is happening.

When I manage to quit the game (I have the menu options memorized), my desktop hangs. Only way is to restart the laptop.

Help.

Try to start in windowed mode (-t command line option) and see if that helps.

ubuntu 11.04 has some problems with fullscreen programs...
it can totally "hang" when you start a program in fullscreen (ac,mozilla...)
might be good idea to upgrade to 11.10 or downgrade to 10.04 if you wanna play in fullscreen without such problems
