Bug ID: 47885 Summary: [regression] [bisected] games are now restricted to resolutions not bigger than the virtual desktop Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winex11.drv Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: mtmkls@gmail.com Distribution: ---

If wine is set to emulate a virtual desktop of 1024x768 for example, games cannot set any resolution higher than that. Previously they were able to set any resolution up to the real resolution of the monitor.

25167fb286822c93582457815bcf069fef040976 is the first bad commit commit 25167fb286822c93582457815bcf069fef040976 Author: Zhiyi Zhang zzhang@codeweavers.com Date: Wed Aug 14 16:23:55 2019 +0800

winex11.drv: Make screen helpers independent of Xinerama.

So that other display device handlers such as XRandR can be introduced because they might report a virtual screen size with different top-left corner and the primary screen may be different as well.

--- Comment #2 from Paul Gofman gofmanp@gmail.com --- That looks like a fix rather than a bug to me. If I set up virtual desktop, I don't normally expect the programs inside to escape it and work with my real full screen. Or am I missing something in the problem concerned or why it is a problem?

--- Comment #3 from Zebediah Figura z.figura12@gmail.com --- Personally I preferred the old behaviour, essentially just because it was convenient not to have to manually set the virtual desktop size. But it's a minor inconvenience at best, and I'm not sure I can think of any other benefits of the old behaviour.

One question that deserves answering, though it's a bit orthogonal to this bug (and I think was always broken in some sense) is: what about a virtual desktop that's the same size as the real screen? How should this interact with window decorations?

--- Comment #4 from Vincent Povirk madewokherd@gmail.com --- I don't know how it behaves now, but I had it set up to set fullscreen mode, which has the side-effect of removing decorations (but without having to set any other hints). This allows virtual desktop to be used as a work-around for windowing problems when you still want fullscreen.

--- Comment #5 from Olivier F. R. Dierick o.dierick@piezo-forte.be --- Hello,

It is not 'normal' behavior of desktops to prevent applications from switching to higher, available, resolutions.

I just checked and Wine does change the resolution when virtual desktop is disabled and the application request a higher resolution, so the old behavior is consistent with that, and with Windows if I remember correctly.

Virtual desktop is an emulation of Windows desktop (with shell features) in a window, converting resolution changes to window resizing.

I don't think that the virtual desktop feature was intended to be a screen emulation or jail. If you really want that feature, it can be implemented as a separate option. I think it should not depend on virtual desktop mode anyway. When that feature is enabled, Wine should not allow the application to switch to resolutions higher than the current (real or virtual) desktop size. It should hide those resolutions from the application.

What about opening an enhancement bug for that?

It still works like that.

--- Comment #6 from Miklós Máté mtmkls@gmail.com --- Thanks for the quick reply, Zhiyi, the three patches solve this issue and #47815 as well. It's not entirely stable though. Sometimes the blue desktop background does appear, but the actual window of the wine desktop is borderless full screen, and the area outside the blue desktop is uninitialized. Rarely, the wine desktop can't start at all, and this appears in the terminal: 0020:err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x7e71ea60 "sysparams.c: monitors_section" wait timed out in thread 0020, blocked by 0029, retrying (60 sec)
