Unknown DirectDraw error while toggling fullscreen mode

DirectDraw2::SetCooperativeLevel: Unknown DirectDraw error: 0x88760239

…is what I get when I try to toggle the fullscreen mode in Win98. It works
fine from windowed to fullscreen but from fullscreen to window: crash!

My toggling code:-----------------
if(fullscreen) videoFlags |= SDL_FULLSCREEN;

if(SDL_SetVideoMode(m_displayX, m_displayY, m_bpp, videoFlags) == NULL) {
LOG(“Failed to change resolution: %s\n”, SDL_GetError());
}

videoFlags is set to SDL_OPENGL and screen mode parameters to 640x480x16.

My configuration is DX 7.0 + Matrox G200

Any ideas what’s wrong?

This happens with SDL 1.1.3. I downloaded the CVS snapshot for Thu Jul 20.
It is even worse. I can’t toggle fullscreen at all. The resolution is
changed correctly but the window is not centered (the upper left corner of
the window is in the center of the screen) and SDL stops to react to
keypresses. Am I the only one experiencing this?
