Bug #: 34972
           Summary: [1.7.6 specific] Fullscreen applications are only
                    partially visible
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.6
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: mr.exuberant@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified
After updating from Wine 1.7.4 to 1.7.6, I am no longer able to play fullscreen
games properly.
Previously, everything worked fine both with and without using a virtual
desktop.
Now, when I do not use a virtual desktop, and I allow my window manager
(compiz) to control windows, only a small part of the game is visible (tested
on Mass Effect 2 and 3, both of which were working fine in wine 1.7.4), making
it impossible to play. The rest of the screen just shows the dekstop, but the
game still has mouse and keyboard focus. I also don't think the game is being
undirected as it should be, which is a performance issue.
If I check the box to enable virtual desktop, the games now use the full
screen, but the taskbar shows overtop of the game, obscuring the bottom of the
screen.
If I disable virtual desktop again and disable to option to let the window
manager control the windows, it works fine, except now if I switch workspaces,
the game follows me, making it impossible to do anything else without closing
the game (previously, this worked fine).
I am using 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04
