Bug ID: 51166 Summary: wine doesn't handle multiple monitors correctly Product: Wine Version: 6.9 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winex11.drv Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: galtgendo@o2.pl Distribution: ---
Part of this might be new (because of odd circumstances), another likely not, but I don't see a clear duplicate.
1. I have two monitors, but usually keep one of them turned off. Today I had to disconnect the primary and use the other one for awhile.
xrandr kept the dimensions cached after disconnect, so I've only switched primary.
For some reason, wine kept starting apps on the old primary and when I've tried moving the windows by keyboard to the other screen, they became mouse-insensitive. This happened even to as simple apps as winecfg and taskmgr - note some basic keyboard input was still possible, that is Esc still closed those two.
When the other monitor got reconnected, things began working again.
2. This one might be known, but I'm unsure which one would be an effective dupe (same problem, not same app dupe). I've noticed this during the above mentioned problem, but this is broken even after reconnecting.
RPGVXAce games fail to redraw their windows if after starting such game on one monitor the window is moved onto the second monitor. Once it's moved back, redraws resume.
