Comment #9 on issue 333 by wirtwolff: mplayer doesn't go fullscreen http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=333 Found a reference that might be relavent here. http://tigerdyr.wheel.dk/ctwm-archive/2146.html Suggests using -fstype=none in command line. If this works for you guys, you could put it in ~/.mplayer/config as fstype=none The alexeyFullscreen manageHook query I referred to is at http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=313 Please see if either of these enable fullscreening mplayer. FWIW the mplayer version that works for me without extra configuration is 2:1.0~rc3+svn20090426-1ubuntu10 (karmic) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
