Given the lack of any movement on the relevant feature request of Free Desktop in the almost *11* years since its filing, perhaps it's time to re-evaluate whether Wine should be made to replicate the behavior of Windows using the Free Desktop we have (and seemingly will continue to have for the indefinite future) rather than the Free Desktop we wish we had.
To be clear about the situation: NOTOURBUG is a bit of a misnomer. This *is* a Wine bug, regardless of the strategy chosen for getting it fixed. Wine's mission is to replicate the behavior of Windows, and this issue represents a failure to do so. It may well be made much easier to fix if Free Desktop implemented a notion of temporary configuration changes like Windows has, but FD's mission is not to replicate Windows behaviors. For them it's merely a feature request. For Wine it remains a bug until the behavior matches that of Windows. Asking FD to implement a feature rather than doing the work of making Wine mimic it seems to have been a reasonable approach to getting this bug fixed. But can that really still be said after 11 years of waiting? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/626321 Title: X.org server should keep track of and restore its initial (desktop) resolution and refresh rate To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wine/+bug/626321/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
