Dreamchess crashes when changing resolution with X Error of failed request: BadValue

[Guasong]

Running Lubuntu 15.10 LiveCD in VirtualBox

- run dreamchess
- change the resolution:
- choose 1024x768, fullscreen=on, click OK
- **dreamchess crashes**

- run dreamchess,
- change the resolution to 640x480, fullscreen on, click OK
- change the resolution to 1024x768, fullscreen on, click OK
- dreamchess crashes
**in addition, the resolution of X is kept leaving X in "panning view"** where the screen is not completely displayed and user must moves mouse to the edge of the screen to access the rest of the virtual screen.

Error dumped on the console:

DreamChess v0.2.0 (r577)
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request: 151 (XFree86-VidModeExtension)
  Minor opcode of failed request: 10 (XF86VidModeSwitchToMode)
  Value in failed request: 0x25d
  Serial number of failed request: 221
  Current serial number in output stream: 223

Expected output:

- Dreamchess not changing resolution in that case
- X returning to previous resolution in case of crash
