[469d] starts on wrong monitor in Ubuntu 22.04 #1649

Hi all,

I've successfully installed UT from GOTY CDs using patch 469d on my Ubuntu 22.04.

However, when I launch the game, it is launched on the wrong monitor.

I have 2 monitors:

For every other games an applications, they are correctly launched on the primary monitor. But for UT, it is launched on the secondary monitor (laptop screen) and I want the game to be on the HDMI monitor (primary).

Thank you for your help.

Try switch to windowed mode, move window to desired screen and exit from game. After that, game must open on desired screen.

Hi !

Thank you for your reply.

I tried that, but I can't grab the window... The mouse disappears as soon as it is hovering the window, including hovering the window's decoration. So far I was not able to move the window ^^".

Edit: I'm able to move the window once the game is on the menu screen. But with no luck. Once I restart the game, it's back on the wrong monitor.

Edit2: Can't switch to fullscreen mode when I move the window to the right screen. The definition is not correct, it keeps the one detected on the other monitor. I can't either change it in the ini file because it is automatically overwritten at startup. Best I can do right now is start in windowed mode, move to the right monitor and maximize the window.

Thank you

Hi !

I was able to fix the issue, thanks to the documentation actually.

I have deleted the embedded libSDL2-2.0.so.0 so that the game will use the system one and it works :-)

Thank you for your help.
