[Bug 25370] New: Where's Waldo - The Fantastic Journey Demo starts up minimized

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25370

Summary: Where's Waldo - The Fantastic Journey Demo starts up
                    minimized
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.8
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Both the retail DVD and the yahoo games free trial seem to suffer
from similar problems.  To repeat, do
  rm -rf ~/.wine
  sh winetricks ie6
  wget
http://h.yimg.com/jh/games/download/signed/ludia/yahoo_whereswaldo_tm6-6.exe
  wine yahoo_whereswaldo_tm6-6.exe

Install the game, then start it.  It sets the screen to 800x600,
then minimizes itself.  You have to play alt tab - tab - tab games
to get back to it, after which you can play.

If you try running in a virtual desktop, the game starts minimized,
and there is no way to maximize it.

wine start /max doesn't seem to help with the free trial, as
the problem binary is launched by a wrapper.

This ticket has not been updated for over 900 days.

Is this still an issue in wine version 1.6-rc4 or higher or is this to be
closed as abandoned ?

Having trouble testing.  The yahoo games free trial doesn't seem to
be free anymore; the gamehouse one doesn't install (bug 13982);
I'm still fighting with the Bigfish one.

It took me lot of time to find the demo, but without success. Only one was
Gamehouse, i had to download on Win machine, but anyway, their loader has the
same problem as installer. Looks like, it can't be re-tested.

Abandoned. Feel free to re-open.
