Noobish Fullscreen Question - AppleTeeni - 04-06-2009

I'm running the latest bi-weekly SVN build on Linux, 32-bit.

I loaded up a game into fullscreen mode, and everything worked great until... I wanted to leave.

How do you exit from fullscreen mode once you're already in it? I tried every keyboard shortcut I could think of, but in the end I was forced to switch to another tty and kill it from there ;/

I use the ESC key to toggle windowed / fullscreen - it works great.


RE: Noobish Fullscreen Question - AppleTeeni - 04-06-2009

Tried that. Doesn't work on my machine. Do I have something configured wrong?


RE: Noobish Fullscreen Question - envisaged0ne - 04-06-2009

The latest SVN builds support the ESC key. If you have a previous one, I dunno what will work. In windows, you can hit Alt+F4 to completely close out of Dolphin. But I dunno if that works in Linux.

linux doesn't work on esc key. for me at least. just click stop button on the dolphin when you decide to quit.


RE: Noobish Fullscreen Question - AppleTeeni - 04-06-2009

That's the problem: I CAN'T hit the stop button when I'm in fullscreen!

Alt+F4 doesn't work either. It works on every window EXCEPT for the Dolphin emulator window for some reason.

I have the EXACT same problem. I though it would be a really stupid question asking how to leave fullscreen, but apparently it isn't, as other people are having the same issue. Is there a way to set custom key bindings? Running latest SVN build under Linux. The only way I can think of to leace full screen is Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, but that forces me to re-login to linux and close ALL running processes executed as me.
