Folks,
I run dualhead, either 2x1920x1200 or lowresx1080P. Invariable fedora games try to start up full screen and completely mess up my displays. Sometimes it is quite a challenge to get back in to a state where I can restore my settings without logging out and logging back in.
I had the same problem with nvidia binary drivers and twinview; it went away editing xorg.conf, adding the resolution needed by the game to MetaModes, ie MetaModes "1680x1050, 1680x1050; NULL, 1024x768" to have the game requesting 1024x768 on the right screen.
