[00:09:42] <luke-jr> I'd be more worried that GitHub/Microsoft will change the hosting ToS to allow Microsoft to ignore the copyleft terms
[00:10:17] <luke-jr> ie, every GPL project on GitHub loses its teeth when it comes to MS

[01:23:07] <Lucifer_arma> that's where things get weird
[01:23:25] <Lucifer_arma> Microsoft actually has their own linux distribution, it's part of their cloud service
[01:39:21] <luke-jr> yes, I hear they disregard the GPL for it too (although arguably legally, since they aren't actually distributing the distro)
[01:51:57] <physkets> Setting V-SYNC, and then APPLYING CHHNAGES does not seem to make it take effect immediately
[01:53:14] <physkets> But restarting the program seems to fix that
[01:53:45] <physkets> Also, wrt the DISPLAY RESOLUTION, the DESKTOP setting seems to stick, but the others get reset

[09:02:16] <Z-Man> physkets: Does setting non-desktop resolutions work the first time, when you hit apply?
[09:30:46] <physkets> Z-Man: Yes, it does work... but doesn't persist across restarts

[12:52:10] <Lucifer_arma> physkets: what desktop environment are you using?
[12:55:07] <physkets> Lucifer_arma: KDE on laptop (i5-7200U), Gnome on desktop (i7-6700K)
[12:55:44] <physkets> the general behaviour seems to be similar on both... although I havent checked very rigorously
[13:06:38] <Lucifer_arma> are you running wayland, by any chance?
[13:07:49] <Lucifer_arma> also, setting vsync might require a restart for it to take effect.  I don't remember exactly, but I think you have to request a particular vsync when you request an opengl context.
[13:18:13] <physkets> Nope; I'm still using X11... haven't yet started using Wayland, even thought both of the DEs come with the option
[13:18:39] <physkets> Yes, with a restart, the VSync setting seems to take effect
[13:18:48] <physkets> and it persists
[13:19:48] <physkets> Lucifer_arma: This is unlike the behaviour of other video resolution settings (other than 'Desktop'), which take effect upon pressing 'Apply Chnages', but do not persist across restarts.
[13:22:17] <Lucifer_arma> as z-man pointed out, arma falls back to a known working configuration if it should fail to restore the previous configuration
[13:22:50] <Lucifer_arma> so, to verify that it's at least trying to persist across restarts, you'll need to set the resolution desired, then quit the game, then read the config file to verify that the setting you selected is there
[13:23:26] <Lucifer_arma> lemme see if I can't help with finding that
[13:27:53] <Lucifer_arma> here you go:
[13:27:55] <Lucifer_arma> cat userconfig/user_3_1_utf8.cfg | grep "ARMAGETRON_WINDOWSIZE_H"
[13:28:11] <Lucifer_arma> in a terminal, use the above command to find out the horizontal size of the window
[13:28:20] <Lucifer_arma> that's for non-fullscreen, though
[13:29:17] <Lucifer_arma> ok, change that to:
[13:29:23] <Lucifer_arma> cat userconfig/user_3_1_utf8.cfg | grep "ARMAGETRON"
[13:29:34] <Lucifer_arma> it looks like that gets you all of the resolution settings
[13:29:52] <Lucifer_arma> also, change the part that says "userconfig" to ~/.armagetronad/
[13:30:14] <Lucifer_arma> so, start up the game, change the resolution to whatever you want, then quit and run that command in a terminal
[13:40:19] <physkets> Lucifer_arma: It is n't WINDOWSIZE that is the problem... it is the ARMAGETRON_LAST_SCREENMODE_H and ARMAGETRON_LAST_SCREENMODE_W
[13:41:09] <physkets> OKay, wait, now funnily, settings seem to persist
[13:41:36] <physkets> I tried opening it a few times, and it stays at FulllHD resolutions
