[Bug 49250] New: Suggestion for the "Launch" button and the "Start -> Wine" menu group.
by WineHQ Bugzilla Jan. 22, 2022

Jan. 22, 2022

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49250 Bug ID: 49250 Summary: Suggestion for the "Launch" button and the "Start -> Wine" menu group. Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: bart-wa(a)tushmail.com Distribution: --- I'd like to make two suggestions that improve user-friendliness, but that can also avoid negative reviews in the future. Here's what happened: I had installed Wine, I clicked the "Launch" button, and nothing happened. At first I thought that Wine didn't work. Later I learned that Wine is typically started from a terminal box. I'm sure that many other users thought the same and I assume that that's why many of them wrote 1-star reviews. After I had learned that WINE is started from a terminal box and after I had installed iTunes and WinZip I had two program groups under: Start -> Wine -> Programs But I was surprised that a program group for Wine itself was missing. So I have two suggestions: :-) After installing Wine, or after clicking the "Launch" button (or both), I had appreciated a message somewhere that said: "Wine has been installed. Please check the Wine program group." I also appreciate it if there's a "Wine" program group under: Start -> Wine -> Programs and if that Wine program group contained programs that came with Wine like Wine File Explorer , Wine Wordpad and other Wine programs. If I can run them, for me that's the confirmation that I need that Wine works. ;-) Any chance that these suggestions can be picked up? Of course they are not "carved in stone" and of course they're suggestions only. If I missed anything, please let me know. And last but not least, many thanks to all the nice people who make and maintain Wine. I'm very happy with it. PS: - I'm using Linux/Debian10 with the LXDE graphical interface and Wine-4.0 (Debian 4.0-2) - A screen copy of the window with the "Launch" button is found in image "Wine1.png". At the bottom it shows a number of 5-star reviews, but even more 1-star reviews. - Examples of these 1-star reviews can be found in image "Wine2.png". I think that these users thought that the Wine installation didn't work, because nothing happened after they clicked the "Launch" button. - A photoshopped image of what the Wine group with a Wine program group could look like can be found in image "LXDE-WineGroup.png". - Right after the Wine installation, and when selecting Start -> Wine the program group "Wine" would be the first and only group there. This program group can show programs that are part of the Wine installation, plus a number of useful Internet shortcuts/links. I added what I could find and what I could think of. There may be more programs or Internet shortcuts/links that can be added there. - For illustration purposes I kept program groups like "iTunes" and "WinZip" in the illustration. Just like now, these subgroups will be added when installed. - I decided to use "Wine Internet Explorer" and not "Internet Explorer" because the first is what I get when I run the program and click Help -> About. - Some of you may think "Why didn't you go to the WINE forum when Wine didn't work after installation?". In 99% of the cases I don't have to go to forums to install programs and to run them. I find a program also user-friendlier if I don't have to go to a forum. For many other users going to forums also seems to be a step too far and a number of them wrote 1-star reviews. - This may sound like two suggestions, but the message that comes after clicking the "Launch" button refers to the Wine program group that I also suggested. - I have a few bugs to report, but I haven't found out how to install the latest development version yet. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

When I set xfce4-panel on right screen, fixed position, and try to maximize Word 2007 window on left screen, the window gets cropped just where the panel ends in height. (under the window you can see LibreOffice window, which works correctly). If I kill xfce4-panel and restart Word, it maximizes correctly. -- 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 not, then the main menu shows up. You can start a new game and it works fine (i think - i didn't test it much). If choose to "See intro" or "See intro help video" same error happens. After several repetitions game crashes. Closing after the first error gave me attached backtrace. I've tried staging too with similar result. Backtraces slightly different. -- 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 tried to install the standalone version of the free to play game “Nosgoth”, which fails. The game is downloadable at nosgoth.com after registration. The page doesn't accept Linux user agents, so switch it to something with windows. The new version is standalone from Steam. So it might be easier to make it runnable. The installation fails with an error message. I attached it together with the stack trace from wine. Please help me how to find the reason of the fail, probably my bug report is way too general.

I installed the game using installer provided on http://gtamp.com/gta2/ . Based on a few observations and comparison to playing the same game in wine 1.6., it seems that bug is somewhat less frequent, but still occurring, probably when changes are made to player's inventory (power-up, mission status...). -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 42595] New: Overcooked: Pink screen on startup
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org Jan. 17, 2022

Jan. 17, 2022

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42595 Bug ID: 42595 Summary: Overcooked: Pink screen on startup Product: Wine Version: 2.2 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: fritz-stuhr(a)web.de Distribution: --- Created attachment 57531 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=57531 Output of glxinfo When launching the game Overcooked, the screen is completely pink but sound is playing, so the game probably loads fine. According to https://is.gd/fZDr0Y and https://is.gd/u0fAGt it works out of the box with wine 2.2 staging, but not for me. My guess is it depends on the graphics stack but they didn't mention theirs. The appended logs are from a wine 2.2 staging install on Lubuntu 16.04 32bit. Clean wine prefix with no settings changed. I tested on a different machine with another Intel card, I tested on 1.9.11, on 2.2 (without staging) and probably some more versions. I also tested with native DirectX 9. Same pink screen every time. I can gladly provide more logs and I can compile and test patches. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
