Games Full Screen Problem

[PalqkA]

I have tried some different resolutions but nothing works for me

BTW it says : " Unable to create new X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'. " but it saves it. when i open the x configuration window again its on the last set resolution.

P.S. can you explain me this:

Code: Select all

Option         "metamodes" "TV: 800x600 +1280+0, DFP: 1280x1024_60 +0+0; DFP: 1280x1024 +0+0,NULL; DFP: 640x480 +0+0,NULL"

this is something i saw by accident in other forum where i post my problem (this isn`t my theme but looks like the guy have the same problem as me...

I don't think so.
Try this please,
In your menus, Applications->Accessories->Terminal
Type the following and hit enter:
sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings
Now change your resolution and Save.

Any difference?

Sounds like nvidia failed to compile...again.

I just get back from work and i tried it this way but nothing really different happens :S
Thanks a lot for the attention

[Cell]

Sounds like theres a permission problem try...

Code: Select all

sudo nvidia-settings

then put in your password and you'll be running it as "root". There shouldn't be any problem saving to the configuration file after that.

Cell I tried this one as Moebius told me but nothing gets better :S looks like really nvidia shuld fix this problem... I have posted a theme there but noone answers me ... maybe I shuld ask harder xD THANKS PEOPLE !

[Cell]

Actually its not the same command.Unless I missed something here?

[Cell]

Or try

Code: Select all

gksu nvidia-settings

or

Code: Select all

gksudo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings

instead of sudo.

This is what i get

and the opened window is the same with the same options.

I`m going to work. Thanks for the help. I`ll see if there is something different with the options on my break.

[Cell]

Hmmm....well that doesn't look right.
I made a typo.Run this,and it should get in the configure window.

Code: Select all

gksudo nvidia-settings
