Most games use this method. After the segfault your dm respawns, so you get back to your login-screen. Try changing the resolution with xrandr before you start the game. This should fix your issues. You could also use 9742 (masked), which fixed this for me, but these are beta. > Mike Hth, Michael -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
