[Bug 17222] New: Extreme slowness in multiple games - nVidia/KDE4/openSUSE

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17222 Summary: Extreme slowness in multiple games - nVidia/KDE4/openSUSE Product: Wine Version: 1.1.14 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: chris(a)chrobis.com For many of the last few releases of Wine (somewhere not long after 1.0), I've experience extreme slowness across multiple systems and multiple games that wasn't present pre-1.0 or in 1.0 itself. Specifically, I've noted slowness that makes gameplay impossible in: - Age of Empires (1997) - Birth of the Federation (1999) - Age of Empires 2 (1999) - Medieval 2: Total War (2006) - Star Trek: Legacy (2006) The slowdown is significant and affects as you can see a wide range of games on three machines that I own, all of which are more than capable of playing certainly the first few titles on the list. Of the three machines I own and have tested Wine on, the following are common threads: - Running openSUSE 11.0 or 11.1 - Running latest Wine (1.1.14) - Desktop environment is KDE4 (though no improvement running with GNOME) - All nVidia cards (but range from an old FX5200 through to an 8400) - All using Wine, KDE4 and nVidia from openSUSE repositories. That aside, they have nothing in common. Two are 32-bit, one is 64-bit. Two are running relatively old graphics cards, one is running a fairly new one. Two are Intel machines, one is AMD. Two have 512MB of RAM, one has 2GB. I like to do my bit for Wine by filing bug reports for various apps but this slowdown is hindering me somewhat! I don't know a great deal about how to start debugging, but if someone can suggest to me how I can help diagnose this problem, I'd be more than happy to help :) -- 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.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12888 Summary: Settlers VI: Requires administrator privileges Product: Wine Version: 0.9.60 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: tdb(a)tdb.fi When trying to start Settlers VI: Rise of an Empire, I am greeted with a message box saying "Insufficient privileges: you must be administrator when you run this application for the first time." I am not quite sure how it checks for having those, it appears to communicate with a driver related to the Tages copyprotection just before presenting this error. The game version is 1.5. -- 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.

[Bug 17326] New: Lightspeed Virtual Terminal opens extra window when connected

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17326 Summary: Lightspeed Virtual Terminal opens extra window when connected Product: Wine Version: 1.1.14 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: trivial Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: nancedr(a)gmail.com When LightSpeed Virtual Terminal connects to a VS server, the connection details window spawns an extra window containing just the program icon, larger than the details window. If you click on it to minimize, it will stop the details window from closing when the connection to the server is terminated. Otherwise it functions correctly. This bug does not appear in Wine-1.1.0 but does show up in 1.1.1. I ran regression testing on it per the instructions on the site, and I think the patch in which it appeared was [b312d42059cb5d139146b9902347c02dd1d8c1ab] quartz: Fix memory leak and behavior on errors in FilterMapper_EnumMatchingFilters. Though I could be wrong. Some of the patches caused the extra window to appear as a tiny square, so I could have missed some. -- 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.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17314 Summary: Wine not functioning with VideoGet Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: aarnold426(a)gmail.com I'm running Wine 1.0 on an Eee PC with Linux. Wine is not properly running the program VideoGet from Nuclear Coffee. On startup I get the following message: "Could not convert variant of type (Null) into type (Integer) >From there I press "ok" and the application opens. The next problem is trying to add URLs to download. When I navigate to the Add URL window, neither the "OK" or "cancel" buttons are labeled as such (no text). The cancel button works, but the OK button does not. In trying to exit the program I get the following message: "Access violation at address 0060C7D4 in module 'VideoGet.exe'. Read of address 00000014." Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you. -- 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.
