[Bug 41153] New: Screen on Mac flickers after quitting Wine
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41153 Bug ID: 41153 Summary: Screen on Mac flickers after quitting Wine Product: Wine Version: 1.8-rc4 Hardware: x86 OS: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: vjurjen(a)gmail.com Hi there, I just downloaded on old version of the PC game Driver (1999) and installed and played it through Wine. While playing the game, there was a flicker noticeable from the game’s loading-screen on top of the game. It didn’t bother me, until I quit the game + Wine and the flicker was still there. Even when I rebooted my Macbook Pro several times, the flicker is still on the screen. I’m running a Version 1.8-rc4 (1.8-rc4) of WineBottler on a MacbookPro Retina 15”, mid 2014 / Yosemite 10.10.4 Any ideas on how to solve this?

There's nothing that Wine should be able to do to cause such a symptom. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

In the flicker, the image of the load-screen of the game is still visible, so it did happen after playing it. Perhaps this gives some more info? -- 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.

Even after the reboots? Try shutting the Macbook down entirely and waiting 15 seconds before starting it up again. Anyway, the flicker would presumably be showing you some leftover data in the VRAM. The precise nature of that data is not really significant. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
