Hello, I installed Bodhi 6 and was able to install wine from the instructions at wine.htmlvalidator.com/install-wine-on-bodhi-5.htmlArena is a chess GUI for storing and analyzing chess games. They have a Linux version, but I have always preferred the Windows version, so I have used it with wine the past few years with Linux Mint cinnamon. Using it with Bodhi however, there is a strange bug. When analyzing a chess position, which requires a good bit of processing power, the entire GUI window begins to move on its own slightly down and to the right. This occurs every 2-3 seconds. Eventually the window will move way too far to be readable. Holding the window from the top task bar using the left mouse button keeps it from moving, but that becomes tedious. Perhaps the Moksha desktop is having trouble with rendering the GUI while the chess engine is being used in combination with wine. This issue does not occur with the Linux version of Arena.

Hi, welcome to the forums. What graphics card do you have. I’ve read that nvidia does this quite a lot. Some people suggest playing with the resolution

Hippytaff, it's always something with these things.
sparkill, what you suggested worked. Also had to do the same with any dialouge box when changing options. Thank you.
I never knew having to lock windows in place was a thing until now.
