xrandx responds with too many modes.
by Peter Dons Tychsen 04 Jan '08

04 Jan '08

The xrandx X11 extension is very handy. Using it for wine makes great sense. But... the extension also enumerates a whopping amount of modes. Each resolution has a multitude of frequencies and bit-depth variants. Some applications are simply not prepared for that magnitude of information when they call EnumDisplaySettings() (user32) or EnumDisplayModes (ddraw). When using "normal" windows, only a few modes are returned. I know its not a bug, as it could happen on Windows if someone published a driver which implemented tons of silly and crooked modes. Would it be acceptable to insert a filter in xrandx.c (X11-drv), which only allowed "normal" windows resolutions to be enumerated? Does anyone need those awkward ones? The filter would look allot like the one in desktop.c (X11-drv) which is currently used by the desktop mode. I already fixed a portion of the bugs caused by this, as there was a natural limitation which should be set by EnumDisplayModes() which was not honored. I sent in patch for this already. So at least now we can play the classic "Grand Theft Auto".... Thanks, /p

d3dx implementation senseless?
by tony.wasserka＠freenet.de 04 Jan '08

04 Jan '08

Hi, I enjoyed the current wine development of the D3DX libraries and also tried to implement an interface. However, while testing it I noticed that Wine seems to fully support everything when it has a native d3dx9.dll (though it even was able to run one of my games without any dll...). So I was asking myself if there's even a reason to implement anything other than the inlined functions of D3DX, when we only lose performance and development time with it. Also, what would we do at functions like D3DXCreateTextureFromFile which supports 9 file formats? Would we implement e.g. a BMP file loader ourselves or would we use a 3rd party library for that? Are there any patents regarding the DX specific file formats (.x/.dds)? Don't misunderstand me, I'd also like to help out at D3DX, but I really think we'd be better off by removing everything of D3DX but the inlined stuff. Best regards, Tony Wasserka (PS: if one argues that we need the implementation for WineLib, I _think_ it'd be enough to just stub all functions so that the program compiles fine and then use the native dll again)

I have to admit I'm not a big fan of that sort of one include to rule them all approach, I think it's better to have each file maintain control over what it includes and in which order. The global mshtml_private.h header should only include the stuff it itself depends on, not every single header that any source file may want to use. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Re: [PATCH] ddraw: Return a nullpointer as lpSurface in Lock() if the rect is invalid.

USER32 - SPI_GETMOUSE missing a default value.
by Peter Dons Tychsen 04 Jan '08

04 Jan '08

I have an app which is bailing out because it cannot get valid data from SPI_GETMOUSE - and indeed this reg key does not exist. The key should be in "Control Panel\\Colors" under CURRENT_USER. There are similar values in the "Control Panel" folder in the registry. Is there a reason this value is not initialized ? If i want to fix it, then: 1) Where is the best place to initialize values like these? I presume its during boot, where the mouse values should be read? 2) Should i get the mouse data from X11 or just simulate something? /p

Local file in Web Browser doesnt load
by Alistair Leslie-Hughes 03 Jan '08

03 Jan '08

Hi, An application that I'm using contains a internal web browser based off the IWebBrowser2 interface. Loading a webpage from a web server works as expected, but when I try to use the "file://C:\myTestPage.html" syntax the file fails to load. NOTE: myTestPage.html has a single paragraph with one line of text Are local files supported in the web browser? Do I need to call a function besides Naviagate2() to load the file? Best Regards Alistair Leslie-Hughes

When I need to figure out WINEDEBUG flags, I always use grep, e.g. dank(a)lappy:~/wine-git/dlls$ grep DEFAULT_DEBUG ws*/*.c ws2_32/async.c:WINE_DEFAULT_DEBUG_CHANNEL(winsock); ws2_32/protocol.c:WINE_DEFAULT_DEBUG_CHANNEL(winsock); ws2_32/socket16.c:WINE_DEFAULT_DEBUG_CHANNEL(winsock); ws2_32/socket.c:WINE_DEFAULT_DEBUG_CHANNEL(winsock); wsock32/service.c:WINE_DEFAULT_DEBUG_CHANNEL(winsock); wsock32/socket.c:WINE_DEFAULT_DEBUG_CHANNEL(winsock); So yes, try +winsock. So how well is Wine running the malware you're interested in? - Dan

missed patches
by Kirill K. Smirnov 03 Jan '08

03 Jan '08

Hi, Is there something wrong with these couple of patches? http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2007-December/048436.html kernel32/console: convert newborn wineserver handle to kernel32 console handle. This patch makes screenbuffer handle, returned by CreateConsoleScreenBuffer function, be a really "console" handle (h&3 == 3). Fixes behaviour of WriteFile function called upon this handle. and http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2007-December/048291.html tools/wineshelllink: do not execute applications directly, use 'start' utility instead This patch allows to create correct desktop/menu shortcuts for console applications (e.g. Far Manager). I've caught on the idea suggested by Vitaliy (If console needs to be created for those apps and there isn't one, then Wine should do it when starting an app.), but I cannot understand how to check it - dumb console always present (even redirected to /dev/null): http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2007-December/061399.html If I missed something important just let me know. Thanks, -- Kirill
