Switch desktops - game dies

Post by slopoke »

Wine 1.3.30

When I switch from the desktop WOW is on to another one, then switch back, I can't bring the game back up. I have to close the icon in the tray and restart the game. I think there's a config solution for this, but I can't remember what it is. If someone could point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.

Run game inside virtual desktop. If you want fullscreen, just set size of VD to your monitor size.

Thank you, that worked.

I noticed the Screen Resolution is 120 dpi. The sample text is pretty broken up. The screen size is 1920x1080. Any recommendations about the dpi?
