My EeePC-701 LVDS has a maximum resolution of 800x480 and a new version of the game no longer supports it :( After fix winsys.cpp it works normally, except for a something mainmenu...

You'll have to take it up with upstream. There's an explicit commit at http://extremetuxracer.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/extremetuxracer/trunk/extreme-tuxracer/src/winsys.cpp?view=log that clamps the resolution to 800x600 so I'm not inclined to change it for just the gentoo package. Marking it WONTFIX for now but please do reopen if upstream changes it in their repo.
