Recently, I've been experiencing an error with programs that have a fullscreen mode with low resolution (80xx600 and below) in Unity. The problem isn't valid in gnomeshell. Whenever I launch an application, unity would enlarge the screen more than it should be and would only show me the upper left corner of the screen (I only see a magnified quarter of the screen). At first I thought that it was an issue related to wine but I later found out that native applications (such as world of goo) are affected as well. Apps that taken on the full screen but have a larger resolution don't face such an issue. Is it possible to get this fixed manually? Or do I have to wait for updates?

Yes same case for me to play the old Age of Empires in wine in 800x600 or 1024x768 resolutions while my screen is natively in 1280x1024. Solution : switch to the target resolution before launching the app so that it does not need to switch to the lower resolution itself: |
