When ever i launch Pioneer it goes into a full screen and goes black and nothing happens, i think i need to chagne the resolution, but i can't do that if the game is completely black, is there a file some where i can edit to get the res back? 

yes, the config file in your user pioneer directory. Please refer to the wiki FAQ if you can't find it.

The config.ini is in your ...Documents/Pioneer directory (should be ~/pioneer on linux). ScrHeight and ScrWidth are the lines you are looking for, they should be at the end. Also there's a StartFullscreen option too. If changing them doesn't fix your problem, could you post the opengl.txt and output.txt from the same directory? They might contain some pointers.
