Serious problems with The Dark Mod on Ubuntu (17.04).

When playing The Dark Mod I can not use system keyboard shortcuts like Alt-Tab, Esc or Alt-F4.


This means that the only way to exit the game is by going to the main menu and quiting there.


And there is no way to just minimize it. :(


This is extremely annoying, particularly when I accidentally click an other window after I run the game, but before it loads its window because that means that the game window will appear under the current window and it will lock my mouse and I don't see anything from it, my only option in this case is long holding the power button to turn off the computer.



The another problem is that the brightness and the gamma slider does not do anything, there is no way to set them which makes the game annoying to play, because everything is very dark.



When I was using Windows these never happened.


If I run the .exe using Wine it has no problem (except that the frame rate is decreased to its half).


Why is it happening? What should I do?

      The post editor for the dark themes should be working again. Apologies for the inconvenience.

      Things have been so bad these days for me...
      Just a year ago, I've been feeling dizzy, I thought it was nothing, today's stress, that type of thing, went to sleep...Still dizzy! 9 more days dizzy, went to doctor (I would have gone on the first day if NOT for the long appointment time)
      Said it may be Neck Dizziness...I did exercises for 6 months, no changes.
      Went to a Physical Therapist, went to another, no changes.
      I've asked my doctor for a full check this time.
      I hated yesteryear so much due to personal reasons, this year might be the same.
      To be brutally honest, I'd rather have cancer or/and chronic pain than suffer dizziness any second longer, especially when nothing helps.
      Hard to enjoy Thief when you're dizzy so I was hoping this year, Winter will be best for me.

      Hello mappers and taffers! 

      Are you still out there? It is so calm here these days and I am afraid this is no good sign.
      Proof me wrong, tell your best friend (=me), that you are still here and that you will not go away!

      Happy Labour Day, my taffing taffers & hard working mapping friends!
      And remember the poor souls who, within the Inventors’ organization, labor under Jonus’s yoke to ensure the success of that very guild! Always remember the hard workers!
