Game Screen Size Problem

[_simon_]

My monitor is using 1680x1050 but the game seems to be stuck at 1024x768

I tried changing it in glest.ini but it's having no impact at all.

Any ideas?

Try changing it to 800x600. It could be that it is not possible to set it as high as you want, I'm not sure though. Maybe try it windowed at 1680x1050.

I must be doing something very wrong because windowed mode doesn't seem to worth either.

I installed the game via a deb.

I have a folder in /usr/lib/glest that contains glest and glest.ini

glest.ini currently looks like this:

Found the problem, it's not  /usr/lib/glest/glest.ini that needs configuring, it's ~/.glest/glest.ini
