Subject: billard-gl: geometry cannot be set. especially necessary with X in xinerama mode.

Date: Sun, 15 Dec 2002 18:41:32 +0100

Package: billard-gl
Version: 1.70-2
Severity: important


Description: because it is impossible (or undocumented) to set the
geometry, in xinerama mode (using a geforce4 and a geforce2, both using
nvidias gl enabled driver) the game pops up in fullscreen mode
but stretches to twice of the usual width. this problem occurs using
kde; with enlightenment it is possible to scale the window to a
reasonable width.

a commandline option to set the geometry would be necessary to make the
game playable with xinerama.
