           Summary: Xinerama - Fullscreen apps minimized when focus placed
                    on app on other screen
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.43.
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-opengl
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: shivermail at gmail.com


Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a fullscreen application with WINE >=0.9.42 on one monitor (17")
2. Move cursor over to other screen and place focus (by clicking) on any other
application. eg: Firefox browser

Observed result:
When placing focus on another application on one screen, the fullscreen
application becomes minimized to the taskbar on the other screen and shows only
the desktop.
You are able to maxmize that application again and continue as normal, but this
means that you cannot have a fullscreen application open on one monitor while
working on the other.

Expected result:
In builds 0.9.41 and prior placing focus on another application did not alter
the state of the fullscreen one.

Workaround:
When running applications in windowed mode instead of fullscreen, I do not have
the same issue.

============
Setup:
Gentoo (2.6.21-gentoo-r4) AMD X86_64
NVIDIA-Drivers (100.14.11) using Nvidia 7900GT

I am currently running fluxbox with Xinerama across two screens.
One 17" @ 1280x1024 and another 19" LCD (widescreen) @ 1440x900.

17":
I run fullscreen applications on this monitor (which happens to be World of
Warcraft in this case, using WINE and rendered with OpenGL).

19":
On this monitor I run everything else. Browsers, TERMs, etc.
