Magikx21 Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 This is the first time I've used DOSbox under linux so I don't know if this is a program issue or just an issue with the OS version. But when I try to fullscreen DOSbox the screen goes black and DOSbox stays the same size but centers on the screen. Is the a way I can do a real fullscreen?

scoonma Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 Hi Magikx, Dosbox full screen works fine here: Recent cooker with dosbox-0.72-1mdv2008.0, Gnome and compiz (command: compiz ccp) windows manager. So maybe it's not cookers fault. What's about your config? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magikx21 Posted September 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 I'm a bit of linux novice so the system is setup at the defaults for the most part. I am running KDE though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoonma Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Which Mandriva version are you using? Did you check for updates to dosbox (use easyurpmi links on top on this page)? Which version of dosbox do you have installed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magikx21 Posted September 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 It is Mandriva 2008 beta 2 and the DOSbox the was included in the Mandriva 2008 beta 2 DVD it's either 0.71 or 0.72. Ill find out for sure next time I turn on that box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magikx21 Posted September 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 I installed RC1 figuring I could start over again but with RC1 DOSBox isn't in the packages list so I'm at a bit of a stand still. Also after a bad shutdown on my laptop my Windows version of DOSBox is giving me the same problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
