wine display configuration problem

alibhai · 05-31-2009, 12:29 AM

I was messing around with the Wine Configuration, and I accidentally set the dp to be way too high. I didn't know what this would do, and saved the settings. When I went to change it back, the window was so big, I couldn't reset the dp to default. Is there any way to reset the Configuration on the command line, or in a text file?

The wine settings are all kept in "registry" configuration text files in ~/.wine. Assuming you're talking about the "Screen Resolution" dpi setting, I believe the setting is the

"LogPixels"=dword:00000078

line in the ~/.wine/system.reg file.

The number is in hexadecimal format, so you'll have to convert it from the decimal number you want. The "78" above equals 120 pixels per inch (the setting I use), which is probably good enough for you to get back to a usable size.
