Aspect Ratio problem caused by Alt + Tab
-Computer-
Operating System: Linux Mint 10 Julia
Processor: 2x Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU - E5400 @ 2.70GHz
RAM: 2GB DDR2
Graphics: GeForce 9800 GT (1GB)
Resolution: (Native) 1440x900 pixels
For some unknown reason, nearly every time I switch the game into windowed mode and then back to full screen, my aspect ratio shifts and the game still appears as a window, roughly the same size as full screen, but shifted upward and to the left, so it's partly off-screen and my menu, panel and a slither of my desktop shows.
I've also experienced crashes from switching between windowed and full screen, you can find my bug reports listing the detail of "No idea", I'm sure. This particular problem can also occasionally change my desktop's aspect ratio, forcing me to log out and log back into my operating system.

I'm at a loss as to why this would happen. I'll install Mint 10 on the most similar hardware I can, as soon as I have some time. I assume you're using the native Nvidia drivers? If I may wind up with a different version of them, or anything else (window manager?), please let me know what version(s) you're using.
