Title:
  Warzone 2100 freezes repeatedly in full screen mode

Status in warzone2100 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Set Warzone to use full screen mode and optimum resolution for your
  display, then restart.

  Launch Warzone, choose Single Player > Start Skirmish Game

  Whilst you are choosing game preferences or when you click the
  checkbox to begin the game the program will freeze. The issue came
  sometimes by overcome by switching to a different VT and then
  switching back.

  I have been playing Warzone on Ubuntu for years using all versions up
  to the upstream 3.2.1 without any problems. This problem started with
  Ubuntu 16.10

  I have replicated this problem on a clean download of Ubuntu 16.10
  using the 3.1.1 version of Warzone from the software repository.

  My system is Ubuntu Gnome 16.10 x64, Intel Skylake i5-6600K, HD
  Graphics 530
