[Wine] winecfg screen size [solved]

[Gary Roach]

Since writing my previous message I have found that the 1.1.24 
installation set the "LogPixels" line in the system.reg file wrong. It 
reads "LogPixels"=dword:000001e0 out of the box and should read 
=dword:00000095 or such. This caused the type size to expand and made 
the winecfg window (and all others) to grow too large for the wine 
desktop. Is this a bug?
