Re: wined3d: Make sure GL context is created before binding FBO.

This fixes a crash I was getting in the Bioshock demo where a > newly created thread was calling glBindFramebufferEXT before a > rendering context was established for the thread. The patch is correct in spirit, ActivateContext has to be called before other gl stuff is done, but I have found that it causes some problems for an unknown reason. So perhaps other bugfixes are needed before this works properly. One of the problems was a major rendering problem in half life 2 lost coast.

Request for "wine packages" bugzilla component
by Scott Ritchie 09 Oct '07

Sometimes we have bugs directly related to our packaging. It would be nice to have a bugzilla component for them, and perhaps automatically subscribe the package maintainers. Thanks, Scott Ritchie

Fwd: Open source organizations particpating in Kerberos consortium?
by Dan Kegel 09 Oct '07

Should Wine (represented by Kai?) participate in the Kerberos consortium? If we want to, the door's open... Stephen C.

Wouldn't, or so says my intuition, the parent background usually be drawn before the control background? -f.r.

OpenGL child windows (bug 2398, fixed!)
by Roderick Colenbrander 09 Oct '07

09 Oct '07

Hi, Thanks to Chris his recent child window work, there is now support for OpenGL child windows in Wine. For the exact details read bug 2398 or Chris his patches. In short the patches use XComposite were possible and else X pixmaps. Not all drivers support both properly yet but for compiz/aiglx purposes most drivers are adding the needed support. I would say test the stuff and report problems. Roderick -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen! Ideal für Modem und ISDN: http://www.gmx.net/de/go/smartsurfer

Re: [bugzilla] Upgrade from 3.0 to 3.0.2 .

Now that we are using a git repository, upgrades should be done by importing the new version to the upstream branch and doing a git merge, instead of applying a patch directly to the master branch. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Wine's wikipedia article sucks
by Scott Ritchie 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

The current article for Wine is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_%28software%29 It needs a lot of work. There's a large (and growing) todo list on the talk page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wine_%28software%29 Some of the information needed (eg, statistics for Wine usage) are likely unavailable to the average wikipedian, so we Wine experts might need to help directly. I'm pretty sure a good wikipedia article, with proper links and explanations, would cut down significantly on the amount of user misinformation about Wine. Fixing the wikipedia article might do more for usability than actually improving the software. Thanks, Scott Ritchie
