    3 Issues.

    I am on an HP Pavilon DV6000 Lapytop. Running Ubuntu 9.10. With Gnome. And the latest Wine.

    1. Nearly any program I run in fullscreen [most linux apps, and all wine apps, mostly computer games] gets cut off. The bottom 1/5 of the image is cut off. and it looks something like this...



    Whether in fullscreen or an emulated desktop in wine, or fullscreen in linux. The effect is the same, the bottom gets cut off. I am guessing it has to do with my laptops display, I don't think the programs are understanding that its widescreen, and nothing is making the adjustedment to fit the screen. when its in fullscreen, the mouse can go off the screen on the bottom and still click around.

    2. Every time I improperly close wine or a program in wine crashes that had something to do with fullscreen, when ever I run another app after that about 90% of the time ubuntu just restarts. for example, when testing this game in wine I would close it via the X on the virtual desktop, then when I opened Quassel, nautilus or xserver nvidia settings, ubuntu would just 'poof' and it would go to the OS loading screen and I would have to login again. This has happened on a few other occasions, ubuntu just randomly restarts. ;/

    3. Probably the wrong forum, but I will ask anyways. When ever a propgram is improperly closed in wine, or crashes, that program will not work again in wine until I do a system reboot, what gives?

    Salved. Thanks. The issue was as simple as old video drivers.
