We've had winemenubuilder add a "StartupWMClass=Wine" entry to .desktop files it generates for a while now (I wrote that patch). This should turn the mouse cursor to an hourglass and make a "Starting ..." tab on your window list until the application opens a window. .desktop entries made by very old (long before 1.0) versions of Wine won't have this entry, so you should reinstall the application with a recent version of Wine. Testing done on Ubuntu 8.10 with Gnome 2.24.1 and a Wine git just after 1.1.10 compiled from source. * When you start an application from the menus it works. * It doesn't work when you double-click on an .EXE from nautilus, even with the "StartupWMClass=Wine" key in wine.desktop. * It doesn't work for .desktop files on the Desktop either, only those in the menus. Even if you copy a .desktop entry from the menus to the Desktop, it still doesn't work. Maybe we need to support the full startup notification spec (http://standards.freedesktop.org/startup-notification-spec) but it's long and seems unnecessary. I'll try do some investigating, the missing functionality seems more due to Ubuntu/Gnome bugs than Wine. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
