           Summary: Starting a wine app causes Xorg to reprobe video outputs
                    (which is visually distracting for some types of
                    displays)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.54.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: winex11.drv
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: vanvugt at gmail.com


Reproduced in 0.9.54 but this has been a problem for me for a very long time.

OS is Ubuntu 7.10 i386
Hardware is an IBM ThinkPad T60 (intel graphics driver)

Starting virtually any wine app causes Xorg to reprobe it's outputs (proof is
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log), which on my laptop is the same as running "xrandr".
This results in the VGA signal being interrupted and my (main) external display
flashing uncontrollably.

This only happens in wine apps, and with the xrandr command (which is meant to
do it).
