           Summary: Winecfg should not allow resolutions lower than X
                    amount
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

I write this because one of my students of Ubuntu just happen to do something
that i did not think of. He open winecfg and change the resolution to 10x800.
Winecfg allowed him to change to that resolution which created a problem when
opening winecfg or any other window without the resolution parameter.

My bug is about limiting the smallest resolution on winecfg. It should be
something around 640x480 since that is the lowest VGA. So resolutions lower
than 640x480 or maybe something smaller should not be allowed to make it a bit
more friendlier to new ubuntu and wine users.

My solucion was to edit the .wine/user.reg file, find the line that points to
the 10x800 resolution and change it there but this does not help in making it
easier to newcomers. Hope this gets somebody to help with this.

Thank you.
