If your game is 2D you only have to call SDL_SetVideoMode() with or 
without the SDL_FULLSCREEN flag.

If you are using OpenGL you may need to rebuild the opengl context (at 
least on win32 you will). You don't have to realloc audio or generic 
data, you may need to realloc surfaces IF you want top speed and the 
pixel format of the fullscreen mode is different from the windowed one.
