[VICE] CRT controls [message #317495] Thu, 05 May 2016 17:11 Go to next message

When ever I click the check box "CRT controls" at the bottom the display
messed up. I can see parts of background windows not belonging to
VICE. There is also no way but to restart VICE to get it back to normal.

It doesn't matter whether I use full screen or windowed. OS is Debian Linux
with the most recent VICE version. No errors or other on the text console
where I started x64.

Anyone has the same problem in Linux?

No problems on Mint 17.3 Mate here.

Here's my screen with CRT controls:

Could be a problem with your video driver maybe?

That's quite possible. As I mentioned in another article concerning the
size of the display. It's possible that VICE switches to from Xrandr to
VidMode to show the controls. It looks a lot like that.\

Anyway, I rarely use the controls, so no big deal. But I thought somebody
might have had the same problem already and knows a solution.

Thanks.
