In full screen mode I can't even get past the main menu as clicking on the <Single player> button has no effect.
That sounds sort of like what I'm seeing with kwin. What actually happens for me there is that the game opens a popup window that gets the input focus, but ends up below the main window. Moving the main window (e.g. with alt+click) away makes the popup visible and allows to continue.
With fvwm the main window starts as 320x240, and I get a popup saying something along the lines of the minimum display mode being 1024x768. What happens is that the window is created with size 320x240, but with WS_MAXIMIZE set. We end up setting NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN on the window, but because it's a transient window fvwm doesn't consider it maximizable, and it ends up as 320x240 instead. I suppose that's a fvwm bug, although perhaps setting NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN on a transient window is a bit questionable as well.
In virtual desktop mode I can start a new game but as soon as I left-click on the map the game becomes unresponsive.
In virtual desktop it seems to work fine for me. (I tried on different hardware as well.) I'm not quite sure what kind of difference in setup could cause this.
