Cards too big using BBO on Wine under Ubuntu Linux asking for help with Linux

I've successfully installed BBO on Wine under Linux, and it runs, but the fonts and cards are so big that they won't all fit on a 1280x1024 screen. In particular, the review of the bidding cover's partner's hand when partner is dummy! Not good.

I've tried changing the dpi settings in the Wine configuration tool and also in the Wine registry,
but this seems to have no effect on BBO (though it does make the Wine Configuration tool smaller).

Are there any Wine users who can help out?

Yes. I'm moving to BBOFlash when possible though.

Do you have the msttcorefonts installed?

Check options (gear in bottom bar) to change cards size.

Very strange, BBO itself is maxed out at 1024x768.

I experienced the bidding covering partners hand. Clicked on the "reduced screen size" button (sorry, don't recall what it's called, the middle one, upper right) and all was well then.
