It works for me (800x600 fullscreen, on a laptop that's natively 1280x800),
so there must be something different in your configuration that's triggering
this.

Since you've reported crashes on another bug, I wonder whether it's
crashing on exit and failing to restore the screen size. Please provide
a log (and, if it's crashing, a backtrace), by installing the openarena-dbg,
ioquake3-dbg and gdb packages, then running this in a terminal:

    OPENARENA_BACKTRACE=1 openarena 2>&1 | tee openarena.txt

This will output information about the crash (if any) to your terminal,
and save a copy in openarena.txt.

If it doesn't appear to be crashing, please start OpenArena with that command
and open the in-game console (press Shift+Escape). In the in-game console,
type "\set r_" (without the quotes) and press Tab: this will display a list
of renderer settings, which will also be logged to the terminal and
openarena.txt. Then close the console with Shift+Escape and quit the game.
I'm particularly interested in the r_fullscreen, r_uiFullScreen,
r_customwidth, r_customheight and r_mode settings.

Also, what video hardware do you have, which X11 driver (and version) are
you using, and what version of libgl1-mesa-glx do you have?

Thanks,
    S
