Bug Description

When trying to enter full screen in SDL2 apps I just get a jittery mouse or a black screen.
I've tried pygame2 apps and this simple C program:
https://github.com/illume/pygame4000/blob/master/code/sdl2_basics_tutorial_fundamentals/hey.c
But I replaced line 150 where it has SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE with SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN.

and I just get a black screen with a discolored bar at the top.

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.2 with sdl2.0.9
