Basilisk II - Full Screen Issues

dcr

68020
I have a Basilisk II install using a disk image from my PowerBook. I can get it working in a window, but when I go full screen, it will crash or not start or otherwise have issues.

I've tried removing all the PowerBook-related stuff, but that hasn't worked.

I've tried one-by-one removing control panels and extensions that might cause a problem but, so far, haven't found whatever causes the issue.

Should be enough RAM assigned to the machine. Changing colors in the Monitors panel from millions to thousands or less had no effect.

Anyone have any ideas what to look for?
 
I’d try looking at the emulators standard output and error streams. Might tell you why, or point at what happens.

On my iBook G4: full screen BasilliskII just gives me errors about the facilities it wants not being available. So I set the window size to be closer to full screen. Honestl, I was just thrilled it compiled on OpenBSD/macppc without much effort. On my Raspberry Pi 2, I didn’t even bother with full screen because it was more annoying to get it compiled.

most “Huh?” moments I’ve had generate output to the terminal. Like telling me the host/unix folder doesn’t work because I don’t have something running.
