Like a lot of Windows games published before the 16:9/16:10 screens became “the norm”, Divine Divinity display can get messed up on these. The following method will give you a way to run the game in a window to avoid this.

1. Run the following command to get acces to the configuration screen for the Divine Divinity WINE prefix:

div1-winecfg

2. In the configuration window, go on the “Graphics” tab;

3. Check “Emulate a virtual desktop”, and put your desktop resolution in the “Desktop size” fields;

4. Close the window with “OK”.

5. Done, from the next launch Divine Divinity will run in a window that will automatically scale to its resolution. You can go back to fullscreen mode at any time by running the WINE configuration screen and uncheck “Emulate a virtual desktop”.
