Bug#811316: prboom-plus: fullscreen mode not optimal with fbdev driver

[Alexandre Detiste]

Package: prboom-plus
Version: 2:2.5.1.4~svn4457+dfsg1-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

When going in fullscreen mode, chocolate-doom does the right
thing and will strecth to fille the screen.

With the FBDEV driver, PrBoomPlus will instead display a small
screen (640x480) surrounded by a black box.

I need to explicitely run it with "-width 1366 -height 768 -fullscreen"
to get inteded result; then the display will fill the screen.

Alexandre



My current workaround:
