[Bug 42148] New: Redrawing issues in Capitalism 2
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org April 12, 2026

April 12, 2026

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42148 Bug ID: 42148 Summary: Redrawing issues in Capitalism 2 Product: Wine Version: 2.0-rc1 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: maiktapwagner(a)aol.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 56717 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=56717 Screenshot illustrating the redrawing issues. Hello everyone, I am the AppDB maintainer of "Capitalism 2" a business strategy game which has some issues I would like to point out. The initial issue during tests some releases ago was that mouse control wasn't working but a staged patch could be applied which fixed the issue and got integrated into main wine. https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/tree/master/patches/dinput Unfortunately a new issue has sprung up in the game which is that when I move the mouse it has some redrawing issues and paints the background. To illustrate this I uploaded a screenshot into the AppDB at: https://appdb.winehq.org/screenshots.php?iAppId=2098&iVersionId=2895 Fortunately there is a demo version available which can be downloaded. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=30640 Could you have a look into this if possible? Kind regards, Maik -- 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 59317] New: Need for Speed Most Wanted (2005): Up is triggered continuously without pressing a button on gamepad
by WineHQ Bugzilla April 12, 2026

April 12, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59317 Bug ID: 59317 Summary: Need for Speed Most Wanted (2005): Up is triggered continuously without pressing a button on gamepad Product: Wine Version: 11.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)list.winehq.org Reporter: eric(a)wolf42.net Distribution: ArchLinux Created attachment 80248 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=80248 Video recording showing the bug Linux version: 6.18.6-arch1-1 Wine version: 11.1-2 (as installed with 'pacman -S wine') Peripherals: USB Mouse, USB Keyboard, Generic USB XBox Gamepad, USB Dongle for Wireless Headset Issue: When starting the game with the gamepad plugged in and entering any menu that can be scrolled up and down (Quick Race, Options, Blacklist, etc.), the game keeps scrolling up the selected menu on its own without any input from keyboard or gamepad. The issue only occurred after upgrading from Wine version 11.0.1 to 11.1-2. The issue is not resolved by: - Deleting the Wine prefix (rm -rf ~/.wine) and reinstalling the game - Deleting the safefile of the game (rm -rf ~/'NFS Most Wanted') - Disconnecting all USB peripherals, except the gamepad, before starting the game - Using another USB port for the gamepad, a different USB cable or a different gamepad of the same type Furthermore the gamepad causes no problems in other games that are installed outside of Wine. The issue is resolved by: - Disconnecting the gamepad, then the game can be played normally with the keyboard - Downgrading back to Wine version 11.0-1 -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 54681] New: Virtual Desktop Streamer Installer: msiexec crashes while installing

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54681 Bug ID: 54681 Summary: Virtual Desktop Streamer Installer: msiexec crashes while installing Product: Wine Version: 8.1 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: pewbustop(a)live.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 74194 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=74194 "The program msiexec.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close." The installer for Virtual Desktop Streamer (a virtual reality streaming app) runs but appears to install improperly as msiexec crashes in the middle of installing (particularly right after the step labeled "Copying new files"). The installer finishes successfully but the running installed program does not launch. I suspect msiexec is supposed to provide some missing file(s)/run some script(s) that better sets up the installed application. https://download.vrdesktop.net/files/VirtualDesktop.Streamer.Setup.exe SHA1 (March 13, 2023): 9bcfa9922a4aafd98a5f6c77b54e8e5b0b316b73 -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 11773] New: Mathematica 5.1, Display errors, unreadable.
by wine-bugs＠winehq.org April 12, 2026

April 12, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11773 Summary: Mathematica 5.1, Display errors, unreadable. Product: Wine Version: 0.9.55. Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: jacobidiego(a)gmail.com Hello. I have previously filed a bug about Mathematica not being able to install: URL: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11725 And this same bug in one report which will be marked as invalid: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11765 The errors of this report is: - Some characters are not displayed as they should. Writing an expression like: (2+x)/(x^2-3) will be showed as (2+x)}(x^2-3). Note the "/" is changed by "}", but double "//" is correctly showed as "//". Also Pressing x² makes Mathematica crashes just becouse the correct expression is x^2 and not x² or x³. Also there seems to be some conditions for the "/" to be drawed, like if it is preceded by a variable o number: see 1/x or x/(x-3) then the "/" will be drawed, but if is is preceded by a ) or ] then "}" will be drawed: (x-3)/x or Sin[x]/x. Thats wear. - Mathematical representation is badly printed. When you enter expressions like (2+x)/(x^2-3) Mathematical has the really nice feature of showing this as a nice looking fraction. Also it can represent it with ascii characters if you choose that, but with wine, it doesn't shows the goodlooking expression and shows a terrible badly drawed ascii expression. Just to say, "1/x" can not be readed with this expression. But i am not entirely sure when and why. Trying a bit furder and i can get some examples which are correctly drawn: Sqrt[x-3] (x-3)^2//Expand But a fraction will not be correctly displayed: (2+x)/(x^2-3) Maybe this has something to do with the first error that mathematica will show a "}" instead of a "/": (2+x)}(x^2-3) All this errors were tested on ubuntu 7.10 AMD64 and with wine 0.9.55 (becouse .56 is not available yet for ubuntu on your repos) and with all builtin dlls, but also some natives does the same results. It is only one of other errors of Mathematica. I have no logs for that. Cheers.

[Bug 53717] New: Unreadable CDROM disk freezes wine
by WineHQ Bugzilla April 12, 2026

April 12, 2026

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53717 Bug ID: 53717 Summary: Unreadable CDROM disk freezes wine Product: Wine Version: 7.17 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: winebugs(a)copysoft.org Distribution: --- I'm trying to recover data from an almost unreadable CDROM disk. I have been running ddrescue non-stop for a few days now and data is slowly being recovered. This means the CDROM drive is permanently busy at all times with a disk that is unreadable and unmountable under normal circumstances (this is important). When I try to launch a wine application via Wine I find that Wine attempts to access the CDROM drive, I can hear the CDROM drive making noises as if starting/stopping but nothing ever happens, can hear the drive clicking as in starting and stopping, the wine application I'm trying to run never start, I can see some wine .exe processes in D state, I guess waiting for the CDROM drive to become available. I can see this in the console: 0058:err:sync:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 000000006CDCB040 "dlls/mountmgr.sys/device.c: device_section" wait timed out in thread 0058, blocked by 0064, retrying (60 sec) It seems that when a drive is unreadable or inaccessible wine freezes and continually re-tries access to the drive. This also means that Wine interferes with ddrescue when trying to access the CDROM drive, because the disk is unreadable and both applications try to access no Wine application ever starts, and if it does (winecfg) it freezes, so I end in a situation Wine doesn't work and it bothers ddrescue. Is there a way to start Wine applications making them ignore the CDROM Drive? In the Wine control panel I can get rid of the Z drive for example but not the CDROM drive... I also tried to go into the Wine prefix under "dosdevices" and removed: d:: -> /dev/sr0 Then tried to link d:: to /dev/null but wine recreates the link to the drive as e:: -> /dev/sr0 and tries to access the CDROM again. Is there a way to tell WINE not to use a device? as in ignore /dev/sdr? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
