Greetings,

I am somewhat desperate. Before I obtained a new monitor, my installed
games on wine worked fine. Now many of them crash at startup. Most of
them run still fine under wine-vanilla-4.0.1 but not under
wine-vanilla-4.17.

After some tinkering I found a hint when using OblivionLauncher.exe.

In wine-vanilla-4.0.1 the available resolutions are

In wine-vanilla-4.17 the available resolutions are
http://www.triffids.de/pub/aoc/wine-4.17_oblivionlauncher.png

You can see that most of the resolutions are missing under 4.17. If I
select the available resolution 800x600 in 4.17 then oblivion starts and
runs without problems.

But many of the games do not have a launcher to choose a resolution
from. I assume when a games tries to start with a resolution which now
seems unsupported it runs into difficulties.

So the question is, how to get wine-vanilla-4-17 to accept the available
resolutions? This problem didn't occur with the old monitor.
