Screen freezes in fullscreen

elGringo — Sun, 25 Oct 2020 12:28:53 GMT

Hi,

since today, after updating my Linux ubuntu to the newest version, games won't work in fullscreen.

The game is properly running in the background but won't work in fullscreen.

I can exit the game with esc and F11 but as soon as I want to switch back, the screen freezes.

It also immediately freezes when I start the game.

I'm using Linux Mint ubuntu 18.3 and a fresh installed chrome Version 86.0.4240.111 (Offizieller Build) (64-Bit).

Edit: As a workaround I'm using a plugin which allows me to start the game windowed.

Did the update invalid some graphic driver that there is no more graphical acceleration ?

I'm using an Intel Graphics CPU/GPU and also reseted the microcode with no success.

Also changed the resolution and the refreshrate of the screen and the driver.

It works with the plugin in windowed and in-window mode.

I can also maximize the windowed instance and play.

It just freezes when the game loads directly in the browser or desktop app in fullscreen.

Edit: It also affects youtube in Chrome. If maximized, the screen freezes. Mozilla is working in fullscreen.
