Fonts cut off (Dawn of War, wine 0.9.45 +)

Post by Pumbaa80 »

I'm using wine 0.9.44 to run Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 1.51 on Kubuntu 8.04
This works just fine:

However, if I use wine 0.9.45 or any later version, the topmost pixel of the fonts is cut off:

Also, there's a thin line at the very top of the screen that should not be there.

Is there a workaround for this? Some secret Registry hack? :wink:
Thanks

This includes the latest version.

I guess it has something to do with one of the changes made in wine 0.9.45.
I tried to do some registry tweaks as mentioned in http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys, but none of them works.

Note: I experienced the same problem in Ubuntu 7.10 and 7.04
