      When running the game, I press F11.

      *What I expected to happen*: the game switches to fullscreen

      *What actually happened*: The screen becomes black for a moment (similarly to when it actually switches to fullscreen), but when it comes back, it is still running in a window, except it goes to the pause screen (and pressing ESC will not resume the game, too).

      I have attached a video. The observable phenomenon is pretty much the same minus the white glitchy lines, I think they are caused by the recording.

      *Steps to reproduce*:
      1. Run Minecraft on Ubuntu 12.10 64 bit, using a nvidia GPU
      2. Press F11

      *Other information*
      There is an AskUbuntu thread that discusses the same issue with some additional details regarding tried and not working troubleshooting methods:
