[Wine] Re: Diablo 2, cant start, (direct draw?)

[halp]

Yes, thats the problem! xrandr gives me only one resolution: "1280x800       58.5", in LVDS.

I added two resolutions; "800x600_58.50   58.5", and "640x480_58.50   58.5", I made them with "58.5" refreshrate as the original one.

Here's how I did:

And now it works in fullscreen, without Virtual Desktop!
Theres one some minor problems though:

1. When the game replaces the mouse pointer the original gets stuck at that position, while i can only move the "game pointer", so I have to push the pointer to the egde of the screen so it isnt visible when the switch occurs

2. I can not tab out of the game. Well, I can but then I cant get back into the game.

But its alright now. Thanks.
