dosbox

Post by rosswmcgee »

I was hoping that dosbox would work in the new Mint 10// problem of alt/enter to go to full screen still exists no can do// previous solutions on this topic do not work. Works fine in ubuntu 10.. Also wish the calc would open where it was last left but it does not//same bug in ubuntu 10

Other than that Mint 10 is great! Just cannot play a dosbox game with full screen.

I just adjusted the resolution in the config file to 800x600 this gives me a tolerable size dosbox when alt/enter is used. Not the best but better than it was. Thanks!

the question on this issue might have a better chance of being answered using dosbox forums.

though i am using Ubuntu 10.04 i can say that dosbox works well in full screen mode.

have you tried setting it to automaticly run in full screen mode from start?
