[Bug 13914] New: Regression in running XNEWS (program at xnews.newsguy.com)
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13914 Summary: Regression in running XNEWS (program at xnews.newsguy.com) Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc4 Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: sbhollingsworth(a)gmail.com This is a regression that I posted at comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine. A reply from DanKegel said file a bug report! On Jun 11, 2:06 pm, SteveInTN <sbhollingswo...(a)gmail.com> wrote:
I've run XNEWS under wine for years with considerable success. A bizarre behavior came at about 0.9.56. I'd run XNEWS.EXE and it would start and run normally, EXCEPT that no icon for the running program appears in the Gnome Panel. What this means is that if you minimize it, you've lost it. (I don't know a way to force a restore of a running task other than to use its icon. Any alternative for this is welcome.)
Please file a bug for this at http://bugs.winehq.org Per his suggestion, I found that starting from scratch with everything (new .wine and fresh XNEWS directory) yields a working XNEWS. Since there is no XNEWS install, per se, and I'd previously forced .wine to be recreated from scratch, this shows that some XNEWS setting can cause wine (through 1.0rc4) to lose the panel icon for the running program. Not good, but since a completely clean install restores order, it's not critical for me. For others who have more invested in an already installed program set, it might be much more intrusive. -- 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.

If if works now with clean ~/.wine. Wine beta versions do not guarantee that everything will work fine with the old ~/.wine directory. Unless you can reproduce this behavior between -rc versions of 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.

This bug occurs with a CLEAN .wine. REPEATING! REPEATING! THIS BUG OCCURS WITH A CLEAN .wine. The half-baked resolution is to start ALSO with a fresh set of XNEWS files as well. THERE IS SOMETHING VALID IN THE XNEWS .ini files that causes all wine-rc version to misbehave. THAT IS A BUG! -- 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.

I.e., wine is corrupting XNews's settings somehow? -- 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.
