[Bug 12278] New: wine uses dual-screen, confines non-wine progs to one screen
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12278 Summary: wine uses dual-screen, confines non-wine progs to one screen Product: Wine Version: 0.9.58. Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: jrle1(a)twcny.rr.com I have a dual-screen (nvidia twinview) setup, with icewm window manager, running debian lenny and wine 0.9.58. Normally my taskbar is at the bottom of one screen on one monitor. The other, second, screen on the second monitor is "above" the first screen on the first monitor. When I start wine - any wine program, and even just running winecfg, I have full access to both screens ***for the wine program***. Alas, while giving itself full dual-screen access, wine moves my taskbar to the bottom of the second screen and completely deprives me of access to the first screen for non-wine programs. The desktop itself and all non-wine programs are confined to the second screen. The only way I have found to get back to my normal dual-screen setup after starting wine is to log out of X and back in. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12278 --- Comment #1 from Lei Zhang <thestig(a)google.com> 2008-04-02 00:02:33 --- Can you try a different window manager and see if it has similar problems? Can you provide your xorg.conf? What video card are you using and what's the driver version? No need to CC yourself on your own bug. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

My apologies. The same "taskbar relocation" happens when I run "nvidia-settings" (but not when I am running "real" programs - until the problem with wine occurred, I didn't have reason to run "nvidia settings"). So for now, please ignore this bug.

I am posting the "cure" to my "nvidia icewm twinview dual-screen wine woes", in case anyone else has the same problem. I needed to add the following line under Section "Device" Option "NoTwinViewXineramaInfo" "True" According to http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/169.12/README/appendix-b...., "Some window mangers get confused by this information, so this option is provided to disable this behavior." It seems icewm is one of "those" wms. I don't know what other consequences there may be to using this option with twinview. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
