           Summary: Wine should use XRandR for resolution switching
           Product: Wine
           Version: 20030318
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-x11driver
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: dux-bugzilla at acz.org


I play Counter-Strike using Wine, and while the game itself plays perfectly
there are several problems related to screen resolution.  Starting
Counter-Strike changes to a virtual resolution (i can still scroll over the rest
of the desktop with my mouse) fine, but when I join a game the resolution
changes back to the deskop resolution and i have to change the resolution
maually using ctrl+alt+minus.  This wouldn't be such a big deal, except that the
game isn't always exactly centered and i have to scroll the cursor to center it.
 Sometimes while playing the game will somehow become off-centered again, and
i'll have to exit out to the menu to get a cursor to recenter it.  Another
problem is that the game will place dialogs offscreen that should have been
centered, apparently because it's using the real X resolution for the screen
dimensions rather than the virtual one.

I'm sure similar problems exist for other games, and while there are other ways
of fixing them, implementing XRandR for resolution changing is probably the
"right" and simplest way to do it.
