[Bug 37614] New: Applications do not always start inside a configured virtual desktop
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37614 Bug ID: 37614 Summary: Applications do not always start inside a configured virtual desktop Product: Wine Version: 1.7.31 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: austinenglish(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 50062 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=50062 screenshot I noticed some strangeness with virtual desktops. Configuring one (either via winetricks or winecfg) and then starting e.g., notepad/regedit starts the application outside of the virtual desktop. To ensure it wasn't a race, I did 'wineserver -w' (and also added a sleep of 10 seconds), but the problem remains. After a few tries (usually 2-3), the application will start inside the desktop, and from there, it seems to always work as expected. Commandline used: $ winetricks -q vd=1024x768 ; wineserver -w ; sleep 10 ; notepad screenshot attached.

same here but the virtual desktop gets flaky again when i run winetricks, even if i don't change any settings. btw, i always get the expected behavior if i run notepad with e.g., wine explorer /desktop=MyDesktop,640x480 notepad -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

The problem occurs when: * Thread 1 calls GetDesktopWindow() and is responsible for setting up the desktop. * Desktop process finishes CreateWindow call. The desktop is now partially initialized, but still has size 0x0. * Thread 2 calls GetDesktopWindow() and receives a valid handle. The code assumes that the desktop is already initialized, but actually it isn't. The relevant function is X11DRV_CreateDesktopWindow, which doesn't handle partially initialized desktops. I think its easy enough to fix this annoying bug before the 1.8 release, assigning to myself. (But other people are also welcome to help searching for the best solution of course.) -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Hello, I created a fresh wineprefix on wine 7.9 and ran winecfg to set a 1024x768 virtual desktop. Then I made a 100 iterations loop of "notepad; wineserver -w" followed by a few manual run of winecfg, regedit, notepad and taskmgr. The issue didn't occur once.

Hello,
I created a fresh wineprefix on wine 7.9 and ran winecfg to set a 1024x768 virtual desktop.
Then I made a 100 iterations loop of "notepad; wineserver -w" followed by a few manual run of winecfg, regedit, notepad and taskmgr. The issue didn't occur once.
I can't reproduce either (in 500 runs), nor have I seen anyone seen any reports of this recently elsewhere. Unfortunately my current setup can't compile very old wine (5.0 fails to build here); would be curious to know what fixed this (I suppose there's a small chance it could've been fixed/worked around in X11 instead..). Anyway, works here, and I don't have 1.7.31/4.18 to see if it was wine or X11. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37614 --- Comment #14 from Ken Sharp <imwellcushtymelike(a)gmail.com> --- I have some pre-built versions of Wine installed back to 2.0.5 and I couldn't recreate the issue, so this may have been fixed outside of Wine. I also tried 1.8.7 (and earlier) but it crashes out badly. I also discovered that X11 has a window (client) limit - who knew? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
