Linux : no fullscreen with OpenBox

Hello,
Using Warsow 0.62 with OpenBox 3.4 (on Ubuntu). The problem doesn't happen on same PC when using GNOME. The problem didn't happen at the time I used Warsow 0.5, although it may rather be related to OpenBox being older than 3.4 (I can't confirm this).

Problem is simple : I can't run Warsow in fullscreen in OpenBox. When trying to force fullscreen mode (setting it in the graphic options, in the cfg file), it stays in windowed mode.

I've had the problem for monthes (i put a message in the troubleshooting forum) but I may have found why just today. According to its wiki, OpenBox 3.4 added some fixes for legacy fullscreen apps not displaying correctly. It seems that to avoid bugs, OpenBox forces fullscreen apps that don't use "EWMH fullscreen hints" to force display in a window (EWMH = Extended Window Manager Hints).

Does Warsow use these "hints" (if it does, the problem then comes from something else)? if not, can this be added in a future version?

Hi

Warsow partly supports the EWMH standard but I'm not sure if it does correctly tell the window manager that it does.

I think I'll look into the issue this weekend.

That's great. If you need some feedback for testing, let me know.

I couldn't fix the bug yet but i have a workaround for you.

There is a little command line utility called wmctrl used to control the window manager.

Start warsow and then type

wmctrl -l

into a terminal to find out which id the warsow window has for example 0x01200004 and then use

wmctrl -i -r 0x01200004 -b add,fullscreen

to make Warsow fullscreen

If you are sure that you only have one window with Warsow in the title you can simply use

wmctrl -r Warsow -b add,fullscreen

PS: In case you didn't know yet you don't have to switch to a virtual terminal since you should be able to tab out of Warsow even if it is fullscreen

Well, it doesn't work.

I launched Warsow and typed wmctrl -r Warsow -b add,fullscreen in a terminal: nothing seemed to happen. I went in the graphic options, choosed "fullscreen: yes" and applied but the problem is still the same: Warsow tries to switch to fullscreen and reverts back to windows mode immediately.

After quitting Warsow, I saw that my Chromium window (which I kept open in another virtual desktop to see your commands) had been switched to fullscreen. I guess wmctrl mistook it for Warsow (maybe because it was the only window in the first desktop).

So I started again, this time by getting the Warsow window ID and using your first command (wmctrl -i -r 0x02a00005 -b add,fullscreen). There, I guess the Warsow window was well identified by wmctrl as it switched fullscreen as soon as I typed the command but it reverted immediately back to windowed mode, like when I go in the graphic settings and select "fullscreen: yes".

Ok sorry about that. I had already partly fixed the issue without noticing.

The good news is i've now completely fixed it!

Do you know how to apply a patch and compile warsow? And if you don't what system do you use?
I'll try to compile it for you.

We'll, I've compiled stuff in the past but I'm not a specialist in that area.
I may need a few tries to find the correct dependencies needed and might be stuck if I encounter a compilation error.
Also, I've never applied a patch to source code but if you give me indications, I can try.

I use Ubuntu "Natty" 11.04 64 bits.

The fact that you are on Ubuntu should hopefully make this easy.

1. Run sudo apt-get build-dep warsow
2. Download the Warsow 0.62 SDK
3. Download this patch: http://pastebin.com/fQbzCurR
4. Rename it to warsowopenboxfs.patch (isn't necessary but looks better
5. Unzip the sdk into a folder like wsw062sdk and move warsowopenboxfs.patch into wsw062sdk/source/unix
6. Run

patch -p2 < warsowopenboxfs.patch

in wsw062sdk/source/unix
7. Run

make client

in wsw062sdk/source

You now should have a warsow.x86_64 binary in wsw062sdk/source/release.
Backup your old warsow.x86_64 binary from your warsow install and copy the new one there.

If nothing went wrong you now should be able to run Warsow fullscreen in Openbox

When I try to patch the source, I get the following error:

patching file unix_glw.c
patch: **** malformed patch at line 947: 

I'm not sure which file it refers to: unix_glx.c has a little less than 947 lines and in your patch, it's an empty line inside some comments…
If I understand correctly the syntax of the patch files, it replaces the lines beginning with '-' in the sourcecode with the ones beginning with a '+', thus there shouldn't be blank lines in the patch? Should I try to remove them with a simple find/replace in my texteditor or can you send a fixed version to pastebin?

EDIT: well, I tried to remove the empty lines, patch the source and compile it. It went fine. If I start Warsow with the new binary, it can switch to fullscreen (good news!).
Now, I have another problem: as soon as I try to enter a map (tried to create a local game for testing), it quits with "ERROR: Received signal 11". It happens also with the original binary, so it doesn't seem to come from your patch. I'll investigate and eventually open a new bug report.

Thanks a lot for the fix.

Sorry for the trouble i guess the empty lines got added when i copied the patch to pastebin.

Error: Received signal 11 is pretty general. You should create a log and paste it here.

This should be the easiest way of doing it

./warsow > warsow.log 2>&1

The crash only happens when I start a local game (when it starts the server locally). If I join a remote server, Warsow works fine. I've found a few reports saying that Warsow server crashes on Linux 64 bits (which is the case for me) so I guess this is a known bug that may already be patched in a yet to be released version?

Anyway, if it can help, here is the log after I run Warsow, select "start local game", select the map and click start. It crashes before entering the game :

That really looks nasty.

I would recommend trying the unified zip.
I run Warsow on ubuntu lucid 32 bit, maverick 64 bit and natty 32 bit without any problems using the unified zip.

The problem is the same with the unified zip (+ 0.62 update).

If I search for warsow "signal 11" in Google, quite a lot of results turn up, so I guess it's a known bug (I haven't check the forum in details to see if there was a report for the exact same problem in v. 0.62). It wouldn't surprise me if it turned out to be a bug related to the ATI proprietary video driver…

(Last time I played Warsow was with my previous PC, that had a nVidia graphic card and it worked fine apart from the fullscreen problem. My current PC has an ATI card.)

Probably angelscript related stuff, the version .6 is using isn't very 64bit-friendly.

Angelscript in 0.7 is updated and should fix these mysterious crashes.

Anyway, you can run 32bit Warsow in Ubuntu by extracting files from http://packages.ubuntu.com/nat.....1/download this package to /usr/lib32

I haven't tried using the 32 bits version with ia32 libs but I guess it would work without too much trouble. Anyway, it's not a big deal for me: as long as the "main" game works, I don't really need the local game feature. I can wait for 0.7

(Any idea as to when you plan to release it? weeks? monthes?)

Hopefully this year, at this point it mostly depends on our UI team to finish new UI.

openbox is rarely used because it has some flaws with fullscreen apps.
What desktop wiht openbox u using? LXDE XFCE...

But main desktops are KDE and GNOME so get one of those.
KDE is best even tho i have both

What desktop wiht openbox u using? LXDE XFCE...

No DE, Openbox alone. More precisely, I built my system kind of from scratch: I installed the Ubuntu core packages (the minimal ones needed to run the system in command line mode), X.org (for graphical display), a login manager (LightDM in my case) and Openbox (and some tools to manage misc settings).

I prefer to have a minimal system than cluttering my memory & CPU usage with features I don't need. ;)

You mean you can run Warsow fullscreen when using Openbox alone on an OpenSuse base? Or did you run KDE/GNOME with Openbox as a replacement for Kwin/Metacity?
Theorically, when you install Openbox, it adds three sessions to your environment, which can be selected from the login screen: Openbox, Openbox/GNOME and Openbox/KDE. The latter ones run the selected desktop environment but replace the original window manager (Metacity for GNOME / Kwin for KDE) by Openbox. I use the session that runs Openbox alone.
Do you know which version of Openbox is packaged with OpenSuse?

I just turn off decorations, and then drag the bottom border down to fill the screen.

Hello,
I've just downloaded Warsow 1.0 (through the PlayDeb repository) and still have the fullscreen bug which had been fixed by K1ll's patch. I guess it hasn't been added in the source code since...

Do you plan to fix the issue in a future version?
