             Bug #: 29493
           Summary: Drone exits when not in virtual desktop mode, No
                    matching mode found 320x200x8
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.35
          Platform: x86-64
               URL: http://www.fileplanet.com/42878/40000/fileinfo/Drone-v
                    1.01
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org

This bug applies to the game Drone by Pixelsplash software.

Drone was published on at least two CD-ROMs by eGames (Arcade Master and
Master's Series 151), but was also available from the developer. Direct
download

The demo can also be downloaded from
  http://www.fileplanet.com/42878/40000/fileinfo/Drone-v1.01

The game tries to use 320x200 full-screen mode. With Wine in Virtual Desktop
mode, the game runs in a 320x200-pixel window. However, if Wine is *not* in
virtual desktop mode, it fails saying
  err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found
320x200x8 @0! (XRandR)

According to xrandr, the lowest available resolution is 320x240 (on my system
with Nvidia driver version 96).

It would be good if Wine could, when a program tries to use a resolution lower
than the lowest available, use the lowest available resolution and centre the
image in that. So in this case, Wine would set the screen resolution to 320x240
and display the game in the middle 200 lines.
