Hallo to everyone. I was trying to play guild wars on a windowed mode, and i clicked the X button on guildwars, so my whole wine got screwed and i had to restart my laptop. Ever since, wine configuration has a huge interface which i cant make smaller. i cant see all of it and i cannot do anything for the configuration. Any hints? I am on Ubuntu 8.04

You can move the window around with the mouse while holding ALT, does that help?
i have wine working in a windowed mode. if i press alt, the window moves, but the "configuration" window INSIDE the wine window is still the same. That one is the huge one, not the "main" wine one.I dont want to move the main wine window, but the one inside. I see huge bold letters for the configuration window...and i see almost 1/4 of it because its huge...i hope you get my point and thank you for the answer
that worked perfectly, thank you:D
previously, i installed wine for the first time and it appeared to be functioning well. it created its own menus under applications and when i right-clicked on executables, there would be an option to open with wine. now, i've formatted and installed a fresh version of ubuntu (feisty fawn) and wine isn't acting the way that it was. under applications it shows up under a menu entitled 'others' and when i right click on an executable, nothing is shown for wine. also, when i right-clicked and made it 'open with' wine, nothing happened. no error or anything. i've un-installed it and re-installed it to no avail. have i mentioned that i'm new to ubuntu and linux in general? well, hopefully that makes sense. thanks in advance! -bob
