This bug happens on Ubuntu Dapper 64-bit running the GNOME desktop environment. I have not tested it on Edgy or KDE.

When running some full screen games, the ALT+TAB shortcut will not minimize the window and you are forced to exit in order to return to the desktop. Full screen games I have found this to be true in include Tremulous (www.tremulous.net), Nexuiz (www.nexuiz.com), Wolfenstein Enemy Territory, and Unreal Tournament 2004 (http://www.unrealtournament.com/ut2004/).

TO REPRODUCE THIS BUG:

1. Open up one of the above listed games.
2. Attempt to minimize the game with the ALT + TAB shortcut.
(nothing happens)
