wine-1.2 release criteria?
by Dan Kegel 25 Dec '08

25 Dec '08

It's been six months since the release of 1.0, maybe now is a good time to review the 1.2 release criteria listed in http://www.winehq.org/wwn/353#WineConf%202008%20Keynote One big item that wasn't listed is "make asian users happy". I think we're starting to see some motion on that, cf. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16325 This is exciting... getting this fixed might bring in a lot of asian developers / testers / users. I'm nominating this one for 1.2. The criteria listed by Alexandre were: * Fix the remnant bugs from 1.0 (the new 1.2 bug milestone) * Better desktop integration with respect to transparency and desktop mode * Tests that pass Plus some 'nice to have' items. Would like at least one for 1.2: * DIB Engine * Quartz Driver * Direct3D 10 * USB Support (iPod, etc.) * 64-bit support Taking the one by one: - There are 83 open bugs nominated for 1.2: http://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bu… We'll probably end up deferring a lot of these, and adding a few more. (If you think a bug not on this list needs adding to the list, add a comment to the bug saying "Nominating for 1.2.") - Better desktop integration with respect to transparency and desktop mode I don't know about this one, can somebody report on the status? - Tests that pass We're making progress here, but it's hard to quantify. http://test.winehq.org shows some runs still failing 20% of the tests, and others failing 0.3%, because we don't have a consistent set of machines running the tests. I would love to see that site add a feature showing the failure history for particular machines. Nice-to-have items: the last status update on these two months ago is at http://www.winehq.org/wwn/353#Updates%20on%20The%20Big%20Tickets:%20Quartz,… Here's what I know has changed since then: - DIB Engine As mentioned in http://www.winehq.org/wwn/354#Another%20shot%20at%20a%20DIB%20Engine Massimo picked up Jesse's DIB engine code and has been trying to use it with Autocad. He says he's starting to get fonts working. (It's surprising that he chose Jesse's 2007 implementation rather than Huw's 2008 implementation, but he said Jesse's seemed more usable at the moment, even though Huw's looked better in some ways). * Quartz Driver Any update? * Direct3D 10 Any update? And does anybody care? * USB Support (iPod, etc.) No motion here, I think. * 64-bit support Thanks to the gcc guy, Maarten, and Alexandre, "hello world" is working. Maarten is working on relay support now. These are exicting times for Wine... it doesn't feel like it's quite time to start a 1.2 release countdown, but maybe in a couple months.

RE: [PATCH] Fix glReadPixels call from read_from_framebuffer (re-redux)
by Stefan Dösinger 25 Dec '08

25 Dec '08

This patch looks good. There's one last thing we should check: It seems that this is the only code that uses GL_PACK_ROW_LENGTH and friends, so the backup and restore is probably not needed. I think for now it is better to add it because I suspect the code in surface_download_data most likely depends on the default settings without properly controlling them. There's some related driver bug on OSX too(no radar filed yet, unfortunately). Using a PBO for glDrawPixels with a negative pixelzoom(wine uses -1 for y) breaks at least on my radeon X1600 with MacOS 10.5.5. I haven't yet tested it with 10.5.6, but if it is still broken there I have to remember to file a bug. It is sort of a follow-up bug to a bug fixed in 10.5.5; Before that glPixelZoom and PixelPos were completely ignored with PBOs. This bug was on my todo list for a long time by the way. I wanted to fix it, got distracted and forgot again :-/

d3d9/visual tests timed out
by Rico Schüller 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

Hi, on my XP machine the visual d3d9 test produces a timeout message, when it is started from the winetest build. Anyone here could run the tests on windows without a timeout (and off course without skipping half of the tests - have to be more than 4k tests)? Also there is no message about a timeout on the test site ( http://test.winehq.org/data/028617b90ba586bdb30723c700eea888c159ada7/xp_rs-… ). Cheers Rico

[RFC] wined3d: Avoid triggering OPENGL errors when setting point size
by Vincent Pelletier 24 Dec '08

24 Dec '08

(Resent, originally sent to -patches... Sorry) If WINED3DRS_POINTSCALEENABLE is false and WINED3DRS_POINTSIZE render state is set to an invalid size, glPointSize will fail. This happens in "Black & White 2", causing log/stderr to be flooded with opengl errors. I'm not sure if this should be fixed here, or when setting state value. Also, maybe it should be avoided to double-check against opengl bounds when WINED3DRS_POINTSCALEENABLE is true. I would be happy to get some feedback on that patch. -- Vincent Pelletier

After all it's a proof of concept and not a complete solution. Could you also zip these huge things up in the future (mail is now 1217KB)? -- Cheers, Paul.

Sad to say, but there IS a project for porting Wine to the PowerPC platform: Darwine. It has stalled and really could use help. It has forked so that there are two paths of development and the Intel fork is being worked back into the main Wine project. That leaves the PowerPC fork to be worked on to incorporate Qemu, an x86 emulator for the PowerPC. As to the Aqua 'look and feel' there is an effort to do this as well that may or may not need assistance. The goal in that project is to remove all Object C code and replace it with 'c' code equivalents. You can ask the status of that project on the Wine Development list. Again, this is not the area for discussing development of Wine. Let's move this to the appropriate venue. Thank you. James McKenzie
