this can be worked around by installing the "Auto Hide Top Panel Extension" extension and making sure that the top panel is hidden. This makes the app capture the mouse focus as soon as you click on the screen.
Not perfect, since it has to be installed, and needs to be in the right mode too. And besides, the extensions are always breaking as soon as the shell is updated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/929914 Title: gnome-fallback-session fullscreen resolution changes keep the top and bottom panels, inducing distortion in wine programs Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since updating last, the gnome fallback session is suddendly not allowing wine fullscreen apps (games) to occuppy the whole screen, leaving the useless top and bottom bars (which disrupt the viewtomodel mouseclicks of the apps too) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: gnome-session-fallback 3.2.1-0ubuntu1.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-16.28-generic 3.0.17 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-16-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: fglrx ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Feb 10 00:22:54 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111012) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-session UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/929914/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
