[Wine] Wine config screen

[Jerry Linux]

I don't know how I overlooked this suggestion last week but a review of
my problem on Sunday morning uncovered this tip.

When I rename wine and run the config in the terminal I get the same
fried screen.  I have deleted the folder .wine that was created 5
minutes ago and returned my old .wine folder to its rightful place but
we now know that neither the upgrade to 1.1.8 or the rerun of the config
helps.

Is there anybody out there familiar with the nVidia set up screens?
Maybe there is something to be gained by messing around with some of
those settings????

I am lost at the bakery.

If the display appears normal for the fresh wineprefix, then something you installed in the old one borked the display settings.
