There is an excellent report <http://lists.libsdl.org/pipermail/sdl-libsdl.org/2012-September/085922.html> about full screen support on SDL mailing list. (It describes SDL-2, but it applies to SDL-1.2 mostly too.) There were some changes in SDL 1.2.15 (since Fedora 18) in full screen mode settings. You can check whether it works better for you. However I cannot back-port it as it changes default behavior which would affect other people satisfied with current status. If 1.2.15 fixed the problem for you I could try to port it with restored original behavior and you could override full screen settings by an environment variable. 1.2.15 does not use XRANDR by default, when going to fullscreen, it sets dual head into cloning. It does not turn off other secondary output, but it displays the same image. If requesting XRANDR with SDL_VIDEO_X11_XRANDR=1 environment variable, the secondary monitor will get off. (At least in my case because the secondary one has lower resolution.) |
