DoD no longer working in fullscreen with 1.0.5 patch

    Steam version for Mac.

    After clicking "start game" with fullscreen enabled, game goes to fullscreen but it is solid white. Music and sound of clicking on the menus can be heard but the display is blank (white).


    Macbook pro 2,2 with 128MB Radeon X1600.
    Tested on an up-to-date OS X 10.6.8 and also on the latest version of OS X 10.7, identical behaviour.

    The game runs without problems in windowed mode but I'd rather keep playing it in fullscreen.

    Tried using the "-opengl", no difference in behaviour. Also tried re-installing the game and deleting Config folder, nothing helped. I even did a clean install of 10.7 on an external drive, still nothing.

    One small detail... After clicking "start game" in launcher, the window is also solid white for about half a second but then the background loads, music starts and everything looks normal. In fullscreen the screen remains white.

    My guess is that the fix for Lion fullscreen introduced a new bug with older graphics cards. It manifests on 10.6 and 10.7.

    Any hints for a workaround?

    No hints or workarounds, but I'm getting the exact same bug. Anyone out there have any help to pass along?
