No fullscreen in wine

[PhilPotter]

Hi Developers,

Just want to say, great work so far. One problem though - no windows in wine (i.e. Skyrim as an example) can go fullscreen for me with d3dadapter9.

I am running the patched wine and mesa trees, as well as the latest git kernel (as of this post) and all the various firmwares and other libs needed. My card is a Radeon HD 7850 and I'm using the radeonsi driver, with DPM switched on. I know this driver is experimental so fully expect issues, but wondered if anyone had any ideas? If it is down to radeonsi then I wouldn't be surprised but it would be nice to have some insight.

Windowed mode works, but is slower than I'd like due to the inability to unredirect it. When set to fullscreen, I just get a tiny window - which ironically means Skyrim actually runs at full speed. When switching off d3dadapter9 with regedit, fullscreen works ok - although Skyrim crashes before it gets to in-game with wined3d (not asking for help on this, I get the driver is incomplete).

Many thanks,
Phil Potter

If you want to give fixing it a go, have a look in dlls/winex11.drv/d3dadapter.c. What we really need is to implement a Reset method (see msdn for IDirect3DDevice9::Reset) for ID3DPresent which does all the screen setup and sets the backbuffer size/format and so on which is currently (incompletely) done in DRI2Present_new.

Much as I'd love to, my C skillset isn't quite there yet - half way through K&R 2nd Edition though so never say never :-) Incidentally - that file doesn't seem to be present in dlls/winex11.drv.

I really hope it's there

I was being an idiot and looking at the wrong branch - apologies :-D it has been a long week (already) :-)
