[Wine] StarCraft display issues, why is WINE not saving my settings?
Hello, im running Kubuntu 8.10 on my Sony Vaio Laptop; and have WINE installed from the repositories listed in this site. Im trying to play StarCraft; and while the game does run, the screen is all messed up, instead of displaying full screen it only displays on the top left corner of my screen - It was actually displaying properly in full screen until a couple of days ago - something broke and i cant find what. My xorg.conf file does have a valid 640x480 in my default color depth, which is the native resolution for this game; but its just wont take the full screen; *and* when i reconfigure WINE with winecfg to run in windowed mode to at least play it inside a tiny window, the setting just wont stick! The settings just go away for no apparent reason. Oh, I also tried implementing an alternate X.org screen with no success at all, as documented here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=822888 Any comments will be appreciated

Sorry for the late reply, had not checked back in a few days... my xrandr does detect the correct resolution: Code: LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm 1280x800 59.8*+ 1280x768 59.9 1280x720 59.9 1024x768 60.0 59.9 1280x600 59.9 1024x600 59.9 800x600 60.3 59.9 768x576 59.9 640x480 59.9 59.4 Perhaps the refresh rate is wrong? Would you know the correct setting?
