Diablo 2 Glide Wrapper does not work with full screen mode

[ootawata]

As the title mentions, full screen mode does not work with Diablo 2 while using Glide Wrapper, but it does "work" for Direct3D (it's incredibly choppy/laggy though).

Another problem:
In window mode, it runs very smoothly, but if I happen to click outside of the window, Wine freezes and I have to terminate the program.

I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 and using the latest wine version 1.1.5

You can try something like this:

1.Start separate X for your game (if you have permissions simply type this
in console:

xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- :1 -ac -depth 16

If you don't - check your /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config - and change
"allowed_users=console" to "allowed_users=anybody". Unfortunately - in some
new distros this file is missing - I don't know where they put it.

2.Now change resolution to match your game (for Diablo II it is 800x600 if I
remember correctly):

xrandr -s 800x600

3.Now simply run Diablo (windowed) - it will take full screen - you won't
notice a difference ;]

For mouse issue - look here:

http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys

at "MouseWarpOverride" - try changing that registry key OR you may try older
wine with mousepatch - from wine.x.pl - you don't have to install it, just
unpack it to... let say /home/you/wine-xxx/ and try running diablo like
this:

/home/you/wine-xxx/usr/local/bin/wine diablo2.exe (or wethever the name of
exe is).
