[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1780812] [NEW] Full-Screen Switch Does Nothing When Using SDL

[Benjamin Hodgetts]

Public bug reported:

When using SDL switches, e.g.

-sdl -full-screen -display sdl

... you'd expect the display to start full-screen, as per the switch
description, but it just starts in a window. Pressing the full-screen
key combination (Ctrl+Alt+F) enters fullscreen mode as expected.

Tested on QEmu 2.12.0 using qemu-system-x86_64. OS is Arch Linux. Guest
is Windows 98 in this test, but happens universally so the guest
shouldn't be relevant in this instance.
