           Summary: Running games in windowed mode causes secondary
                    monitor to shutdown in TwinView mode.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ben.r.xiao at gmail.com


Running Perfect World International and Source-engine based games in windowed
mode will cause the secondary monitor in Nvidia TwinView to shutoff. It seems
like these games are switching to the native resolution of the primary display
rather than keeping the combined TwinView resolution.

For example, I have a 1680x1050 primary monitor and a 1440x900 secondary
monitor. This gives me a TwinView resolution of 3120x1050. When I launch
Perfect World or a Source-engine based game in windowed mode, the resolution is
changed to 1680x1050, which shuts off my secondary monitor. Games running in
windowed mode should NOT change desktop resolution.
