I have the same problem with Ubuntu 20.04. My workaround is to set the screen resolution by editing ~/.d2x- rebirth/descent.cfg manually.
The problem that my Gnome desktop resolution is screwed up after exiting the game, remains, though. I have to log out and in again in order to restore the screen resolution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1881355 Title: Game freezes on screen resolution change.
