Full Screen and alt-tabbing has caused no problems for me yet on 2 different computers.

On my laptop, however, if i alt-tab too fast after character selection, my laptop starts in lowest graph mode, although game config still claims its 1400x1050. On the other hand, switching it to something else and back fixes that no problem. Even my controls are where they are supposed to be after that :)

Windowed, because otherwise it crashes when I alt tab to other windows. Which is very annoying.

Fullscreen, as Alt/TAB works fine with me. I used to play windowed on linux, as Alt/TAB wouldn't work for me there.

I have Ryzom full screened on my laptop and have a separate desktop computer for all my surfing and foruming and whatevers. (Yes, the laptop runs Ryzom much better, hehe)
