Exiting Full Screen Lowers OS's Resolution?

Hi,

I am using current Wine 1.2
on a Ubuntu 10.04 Linux 32bit system.

When I play a Windows game using Wine in full screen
and then exit that game, my Ubuntu screen resolution is lowered?

How can I stop this?
Thanks!

Jesse

Yeah it's a long standing bug.

Short of fixing Wine not much you can do. Just reset it back with 'xrandr -s 0'.
