Linux has no concept of "fullscreen exclusive mode".

hey buddy your keyboard is broken, it keeps repeating the quotation marks.

Not true. I can tab out of fullscreen StarCraft 2 or Dota 2 immediately.
My PC is pretty fresh though. Bought it 4 months ago.

and thats why linux sucks
Run at native resolution

I see you're enjoying your Direct3D devices going missing. Protip: Ever since Windows Vista, dwm does a better job at compositing direct3d than exclusive fullscreen mode. Exclusive mode is literally a meme to satisfy people who don't know better.

>your Direct3D devices going missing.
what devices going missing when and where?
>>54815988
i must agree. upscaling lower resolutions to desktop resolution or even worse decreasing desktop resolution to the running application (wine does that as well as openarena) just sucks. wish they made a game-exclusive tty just for that.
>>54816037
PS but everyone seeing that i can alt-tab from morrowind or dota without crashes and instantly is impressed, so i guess it has a point.
>>54815897
This only happens if the fullscreen application is on the same drive as your OS
>>54816024
Whenever the call to DirectX3DDevice::Present fails.
>>54816037
Anything other than native resolution will look horrible on everything but a crt. Upscaling on the gpu is no worse, and will often produce a better picture than letting the monitor upscale.

lol mate no clue what you are saying. I just open the game and it runs.
>Not using Fullscreen Windowed
It's your own fault
>>54816021
>Program running at 200fps
>dwm displaying window at 15fps
Keep telling yourself that dwm is better than exclusive mode
non exclusive fullscreen has more input lag, right?
>>54815897
Nope. Even shoddily coded games like Skyrim and Fallout 4 alt-tab out immediately.
Your machine is most definitely just shit.

i do not mean upscaling on the gpu is shit, i mean when a game crashes and has a 640x480 resolution the desktop stays at this resolution and you have to either use the command line to restore it or blindly switch trough menus with tab. its annoying. Source: planescape torment, starcraft ,warcraft 3 and wow on wine , openarena and basicly every other linux native game i got to crash on low resolution.

>PC to slow for borderless window in native resolution
It's fucking instant.
>Not using borderlands windowed mode
>>54815962
Borderless fullscreen.
>>54815897
I alt-tab from games instantly. On a Toshiba P50-B-118. I've been playing Stellaris lately, for instance. On xubuntu 16.04 by the way.
Your problem is either shit PC or shit operating system. Or both.
>>54815897
Are you from 2000 OP?
Because, I don't have this problem right now.
Windows 10, even playing GTAV
That's just the monitor changing resolution, if you aren't a underage shitter you would know that this only happens on lcds. The fault lies probably on the window manager or game engine that for some reason wants to change the resolution even it is the same.

>>54815988
Linux has exclusive fullscreen though. It's just smarter.
It works by implicitly unredirecting the window when it covers the whole screen.
It does only if you're running different resolutions
>>54815897
Only on Windows

He's a windows user, you'll confuse him if you talk about code
