Folks,
I run dualhead, either 2x1920x1200 or lowresx1080P. Invariable fedora
games try
to start up full screen and completely mess up my displays. Sometimes it
is
quite a challenge to get back in to a state where I can restore my settings
without logging out and logging back in.
Please make your games start in windowed mode. Let the user choose later
to go
fullscreen. Or make your came properly save the xrandr state and restore
it,
including dual head. Don't EVER go to mirror mode.
Two sample great games that just don't do full screen dual head smart:
extremetuxracer
angry dwarves
Oh, and can't full screen be just one head? The video players can do it.
How
about the games?
Thanks guys!
Keep the great games coming.

I had the same problem with nvidia binary drivers and twinview; it went
away
editing xorg.conf, adding the resolution needed by the game to MetaModes,
ie
MetaModes "1680x1050, 1680x1050; NULL, 1024x768"
to have the game requesting 1024x768 on the right screen.
