Bug #: 33868
           Summary: Sims Medieval (and probably many other games)
                    fullscreen isn't fullscreen on Ubuntu 13.04

          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW

          Priority: P2

    Classification: Unclassified
Ah, Unity.
I just tested Sims Medieval, which defaults to fullscreen... but Ubuntu (13.04,
but probably also earlier versions)'s Unity launcher bar on the left is
still shown, as is the global menu bar... so the game is shortchanged in both
X and Y, and is therefore cut off slightly.
Makes it hard to play.
I've seen this on several games in the past, too.
This is probably a Unity bug,

but I think it deserves mention here, too.
