2 questions

1) how can i make wine go full screen, matching the resoulution of my desktop and WINE just cuts off an inch of the bottom screen

2) some games flicker (sporadic flashing) namely WoW and D2 LoD. i got D2 to run better by using OpenGL but it messes with the ground graphics. however in WoW i can only run it in OpenGL and i still get flickering. i believe the cause of this to be my ATI card, but is there a way to fix this until a month or so from now i can get a new card?

I use Nvidia myself but this page (http://www.wowwiki.com/Linux/Wine/Troubleshooting) offers a solution to your problem.

i found the culprit, the flashing is due to 100% cpu and i fixed this by downgrading my visual effects in preferences

You downgraded in-game visual effects or Ubuntu visual effects?
