Hi

I tested this a few months ago on Mageia Linux 1, 32 bits, KDE 4, and full screen was working fine:

I'm going to give it another try tonight. I will try to use your ANT script at home during this weekend.

I'm quite surprised because even the buggy fullscreen support of AWT has reliably worked on Gnome for years (since about 2007 just after something wrong had been changed in Metacity).

Can you try older versions to see whether it is a regression? I'm sure NEWT fullscreen was working fine on Linux a few months ago, I had tested on several machines, 32 bits & 64 bits.


Sven, please, can you add a Java Web Start version of the same demo I tried several months ago (Angeles GL2ES1)? On some Linux machines I use for my tests, I don't have enough permissions to setup Java in Firefox. I would like to use this demo on 64 bits machines and at home I have only 2 computers with 32 bits microprocessors.
