hi to all of urban terror

I'm having problems on debian, I can not configure 1 screen to play and the other to display my operating system.

Now I'll explain better, I have 2 screens one use it to play is the other discord use to talk with friends.
In the settings there is no disability the screen
How can I solve this problem?

Hey,
Can you explain your problem further? How exactly are your two screens set up? What happens when you run Urban Terror? Is it displayed on just one screen? On both?

On my Linux system I have it set up that each screen displays a different workspace and I can run UrT on one and whatever on the other without any problems. (Have to open the ingame console to be able to switch workspaces though)

In addition to what Lochverstaerker suggested, you could also try the border-less window mode introduced in 4.3.
Sorry for my bad spelling - I am still asleep. :)

Try launching with a startup script. Here's a simple example to get UrT to play on one monitor instead of the silly way it seems to usually launch when you have 2 monitors:



#!/bin/bash
# Urban Terror startup script
# /usr/local/bin/urt43

# tells UrT to run on one monitor
export SDL_VIDEO_FULLSCREEN_HEAD=0

# launches UrT, be sure to point this to wherever your UrT folder is
/home/YOUR_USER_NAME/UrbanTerror43/Quake3-UrT.x86_64




I recommend putting this startup script in /usr/local/bin, and naming it something like "urt". Then, you can just launch a terminal, type in "urt", and you should be good to go. Hopefully this works for you.

I'm not the OP but I was having the same issue and I wanted to say thanks a ton for the script; it was a great help!
