wine users - Dec 2009 - pet vet 2

I got pet vet 2 for my daughter for channukah. unfortunately her and my laptops
(win xp) dont have the right video card. My linux ubuntu 9.10 machine does but I
cant get the game to run in wine. It goes full screen so that messes up my dual
monitors.. So I set it to emulate a virtual desktop but when you click on the
setup user button in the program the whole game shuts down... back to desktop. I
dont know if it is opening another window and wine vitural desktop sees that as
a new ap and wont open it in the virtual desktop window or if it is a problem
with the game... It is hosing my system as well so I am not sure what to do...
BTW if anyone out there nows how to get  pixel shading on a mobile intel 965
express chipset family turned on please tell me... that is the hold up on the
laptops!

	What Wine version are you using? What is the terminal output ("debugging 
log")? If you unsure what version of Wine you are running or how to get 
terminal output please read these answers in the FAQ:

	Solution for this problem is simple: use separate X server and separate 
account for running full screen games. This way you can have great desktop 
effects in your "primary" X server and enjoy best performance in full
screen
games without problems related to dual-screen setup in "secondary" X
server.
Obviously you should turn off secondary screen and all desktop effects in 
"secondary" X server because full screen games generally assume you
have just
one screen and desktop effects ("compositing") can slow down OpenGL
applications
including games.
