This issue has been with me since the first time I installed tf2 on 12.11 beta drivers and has continued with 13.1 drivers. If I try to run tf2 in fullscreen (I have a 1920x1080 monitor) all I get is black. If I try to run windowed with no border I still get black. The only way I have been able to run at 1920x1080 is by running it windowed with a border, but that looks awkward and doesn't fit well on my screen. To get around this I have been running in 1600x900, which works regardless of whether or not I have a border or no border.

Running at 1600x900 has been fine, but I'd like to run it natively someday. I was wondering if anyone else has this issue or if anyone knows of a solution.

My system information is:

Linux Mint 14 Cinnamon 64 bit running the 3.5.0-17-generic kernel.
Radeon 6970 with Catalyst 13.1 drivers

Thank you

You can use gnome to play it in fullscreen (doesnt work on cinnamon for some reason)
