Hello,
I don't know how to 'prevent' that (I believe the game may crash on
exit and not change the resolution, though you would see a message onscreen if
that were the case)). I do know how to reset your resolution back to normal.
You can do that with xrandr which has a '-s' option to set the
'size' (according to manpage) of the screen. You can use a size index or
the resolution itself. Example:
Code:
xrandr -s 0 #Reset to index 0. This is what normally use
xrandr -s1280x1024 #Reset to this 'size'.
If you don't want to do this, my particular suggestion is that you run your
game in an emulated desktop.
Cheers,
