Hi,

I am running Urban Terror on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
When I launch the program I get black screen with the message:

Cannot Display This Video Mode
Optimum Resolution 1280 X 1040 60Hz


And I have to escape out of the program. Nothing else is displayed.

My resolution is set to 1280 X 1040 @ 60Hz.
I have an NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE graphics card.

I would like to be able to play.

Any help available on this? Thanks.

No it's not running in window mode on a higher resolution screen. I changed the resolution to 1280x1024

And the same message appeared, this time with the new resolution settings.

How do I find that out? I've had it for quite awhile now.


Some additional information. I was changing the resolutions around and got the same message so its not being generated by the game its being generated by the computer/monitor. so the 1280 x 1024 @ 60hz appears to be the native resolution.

All the game is giving me is just a black screen.
