    Linux and v3.3.2

    I'm running Linux Mint 18.2 and running FG under wine. Typically I run two instances of the game, one host, one for video recording. After the 3.3.2 update, My second instance has blanked out to a black screen. At times I am able to get it to display again, and others it stays stuck on the black screen.

    I found this link on the Steam Community that seems to be a similar issue on Mac High Sierra, running FG with wineskin.

    Anyone else out there running FG on linux with wine? I can't find a setting in wine that is similar to Auto Detect GPU, or even where Direct3d options are located. Any Ideas?

    I am completely up to date on system updates, and turned off all extensions on FG and using the base theme.

    Thanks for any help.

    Update: I have found that the black screen only occurs when the FG window is full screen. As long as I do not hit the maximize window button, I have no issues regardless of the size of the screen. With the game full screen, eventually the game screen will black out. When when the display goes black, I have to un-maximize the window and the screen will refresh and there are no more problems.

    I'm so glad to have found a quick fix, I really don't want to go back to Windows 10.

    Glad you found a work around. Sounds like a graphics driver issue, so you might try changing that up some, but that's a guess.
