I have opened this Ubuntu bug, please find details there
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/202456

With Gnome, Wine applications may run in a most ugly way.
They have no minimize button.
Setting Wine Config|Graphics|Allow WM control off alleviates.
But Wine windows minimize to desktop, stay on top and keyboard input may go to
the underlying windows instead, plus tanking weid screenshots and more

I found that System|Preferences|Appearance|Visual Effects being turned off is
the condition for the problem to occur.
Hence, it's unavoidable on unaccelerated video, old and cheaper hardware.

Ubuntu assigned this bug to Metacity (because it's the one used w/o V Effects).
But Ubuntu sounds more like wanting to close this ugly bug than fix it.
This lasted 1 year.

And now, do I find the needed patch dormant for 2 years here?

I would like to know :
- if the problem I described is a Wine or Metacity problem
- If it's a Wine problem, whether the fix in here fixes it.

Thanks.
