            Bug ID: 48932
           Summary: Wine does not display any windows unless `xrandr
                    --auto` has been run
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified

`xrandr` output at the start of the X11 session (when Wine displays no windows)

Recent versions of Wine do not display any GUI windows on my Debian testing
(bullseye) desktop, unless I have previously run `xrandr --auto` in my X11
session.

I thought it was this bug but the cause is surely different:

Bisecting git between 4.0.3 (good) and 5.6 (bad) shows:

    winex11.drv: Support XRandR display device handler.

    XRandR supports multiple GPUs and runtime device change
    compared to Xinerama.

I will attach the output from `xrandr` before and after running `xrandr --auto`
for the first time in a session.  The diff shows that disconnected displays
have their resolutions removed by `xrandr --auto`, though they are labelled
disconnected in both instances.

BTW, my first attempts to bisect this were full of spurious failures, I finally
fixed it with shell stanza:

```
rm -fr ~/.wine &&
git clean -xf &&
CC="ccache gcc" CFLAGS="-g -O0" ./configure --enable-win64 --disable-tests &&
make -j 32 -k &&
./wine winecfg
# observe whether GUI is displayed, run `git bisect good` / `git bisect bad`
accordingly
```
