http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3332 Lei Zhang <thestig(a)google.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Ever Confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #5 from Lei Zhang <thestig(a)google.com> 2007-10-18 17:06:05 --- It doesn't look like this bug is fixed yet. The bug also affects Picasa and here's a way to reproduce it: (to quote Tommy Kho) When a photo is exported via File > Export Picture to Folder into a non-existant directory, Picasa does the right thing and opens up Wine File. When exporting into an existing directory, Picasa tries to open Wine File but it fails. In Windows, both cases open up an explorer window. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 6297] Half life 2 based games occasionally do not start due to registry in use

That used to work, but now it seems to make it worse. Keeping the mouse over the games list does definitely help a bit, I did notice it certainly starts more often if I do that.. but I noticed that running sync at the right moment really does boost the chances of it starting. But you must do it before the button greys out, and not too much before either. :-) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6297 --- Comment #21 from Luke Bratch <l_bratch(a)yahoo.co.uk> 2007-10-18 16:38:25 --- What works for me, is to launch a game from the menu, and leave the mouse over the main Steam window until the game has loaded, that pretty much never fails, whereas taking the mouse of does. It is also possible to close the window just in time if you get used to how long it takes the game to start and close it right before. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6297 --- Comment #20 from Phil Costin <philcostin(a)hotmail.com> 2007-10-18 16:36:25 --- The way I have been getting around this for the last few months is hitting Alt+F2 in KDE and typing sync at exactly the right point to flush the disk cache. It's a little hit and miss but it seems to greatly improve the chance of getting the game to start. I've now got the feel for doing it at almost exactly the right moment, which is about a second and a half before you feel the cancel button is about to grey out on the "preparing to launch" window. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Maybe the bug is the reason for other porblems that the DDraw rewrite seems to have caused: Eg. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6033#c25 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 5024] Thief: Deadly Shadows crashes: page fault on read access to 0x0000040c
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org 18 Oct '07

18 Oct '07

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5024 --- Comment #28 from Erich Hoover <ehoover(a)mines.edu> 2007-10-18 10:15:40 --- (In reply to comment #26) > i don't think my patch from comment #19 is correct. Why is that? If you apply the patch before installing the game then it fixes the problem. From running tests with CreateFile it looks like there are only three possibilities for the appropriate permissions: {G_RW, G_R , FS_RW, FS_RW, ERROR_NONE}, {G_RW, G_W , FS_RW, FS_RW, ERROR_NONE}, {G_RW, G_RW, FS_RW, FS_RW, ERROR_NONE}, Since the place you changed actually doesn't do any writing I would say the top option is the most appropriate (GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE), the second option probably would not work because of other code, and the bottom option would be more permissions than necessary (this is the method implemented in your patch). The only other issue would be CREATE_ALWAYS vs. OPEN_ALWAYS, which MSDN indicates should be OPEN_ALWAYS since the profile file should be created if it is not found and opened if it is found. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
