Beacause I heard some player complaining, I am posting my config, that might help. I still don't get why WindowBorderless is not default linux config btw.

Works with mint 17 64bit cinnamon (but also mint 16 64bit cinnamon , LMDE 64bit cinnamon)

I use double screen, and spring is displayed only on one thus extra config parameter that are self explanatory, But the important parameter is WindowBorderless

Code: Select all

AdvSky = 1 
CamFreeEnabled = 1 
CamFreeScrollSpeed = 50
CamMode = 1 
CamTimeExponent = 3.0
CamTimeFactor = 1.0
DepthBufferBits = 24
FPSScrollSpeed = 50
FSAA = 0 
Fullscreen = 0 
GrassDetail = 3 
GroundDetail = 36
InputTextGeo = 0.26 0.73 0.02 0.028
LuaShaders = 0 
MaxNanoParticles = 0 
MaxParticles = 0 
MaxSounds = 24
MinimapOnLeft = 0 
OverheadScrollSpeed = 50
ReflectiveWater = 0 
RotOverheadScrollSpeed = 50
SM3ForceFallbackTex = 0 
ScreenshotCounter = 5 
ScrollWheelSpeed = 34
Shadows = 0 
ShowFPS = 1 
ShowPlayerInfo = 0 
ShowSpeed = 1 
SmoothLines = 0 
SmoothPoints = 0 
TWScrollSpeed = 50
UnitIconDist = 85
UnitLodDist = 85
VSync = -1
VerboseLevel = 0 
WindowBorderless = 1 
WindowPosX = 1680
WindowPosY = 26
WindowState = 32
XResolution = 1920
YResolution = 1080
snd_general = 0 
snd_volbattle = 60
snd_volmaster = 0 
snd_volmusic = 101
snd_volui = 60
snd_volunitreply = 60

Watchout the code tag ignores the markup, now in the config it is written something like: [ b ] WindowBorderless [ / b ] = 1

Also, worth mentioning than with this type of configuration you might want to do at spring console "/grabinput 1" (or,veasier, use the grabinput widget) so that when you scroll with the mouse you do not go out on the second monitor.

Next engine is going to have a /fullscreen command to switch between windowed and fullscreen mode.

Also grabinput widget is super nasty if you have multiple virtual desktops and switch to another while game is loading, or if you minimize or shade it.
