i've had no problems using
- Code: Select all
--enable-fullscreen
#--geometry=1024x768
#--geometry=1280x1024
--geometry=1600x1200
in my startup options... i just uncomment the geometry i want and comment the other out... works just fine for me on kubuntu 14.04.5... i haven't seen any changes in running the latest 2017.1.0 alpha code... i just double checked and no problems at all... not even setting to 800x600 in full screen mode... the image is a bit grainy compared to 1024x786 and my normal 1600x1200...
i've tried with using --enable-fullscreen as well as using the "start full screen" check box...
so that begs the question of what does your fgfs.log file show? if you can use "--log-level=debug" on your command line and then set your options in the options box... start the sim and wait a minute or two then exit it... then finding and looking at the fgfs.log file, within the first 100 lines you should see something like this...

"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
"Dunno. It's frightened of heights, I guess."
