IIRC, the problem is you can't have two Wine processes using two different desktops. Try this: start an app without virtual desktop and leave it running, run winecfg and turn on virtual desktop (make sure to click Apply), then try to start another app. It won't use a virtual desktop.
Terminal one: $ rm -rf ~/.wine $ wine notepad
Terminal two: $ winecfg # enable virtual desktop $ winemine # doesn't go in virtual desktop $ wine explorer /desktop=name,1024x768 winemine # goes in virtual desktop
Now can someone please explain why this is? Is it because using the workaround a second explorer process is started? If so, we can extend the same process and run those apps needing workarounds in a virtual desktop...
