Hi Thomas,

This latest change made two improvements:
1) The SDL2 hardware-accelerated scaling works as expected.
2) My system has less problems (I didn't have to kill Hatari).

It seems that when switching from windowed to fullscreen,
fullscreen is usually 'minimized'. I have to unminimize
from the centos desktop taskbar to get fullscreen, however,
I may have to do this several times before I succeed to
get Hatari in fullscreen.

Switching from a successful Hatari fullscreen to windowed
mode seems to work properly.
