I'm on gutsy, so do I ignore your valgrind-build.sh and get valgrind svn and apply the above patch? -- James Hawkins

I talked about that with some X developers a while ago and they felt (and I agree with them) that this is something that should not be exported. OpenGL hides it from us for a reason. It is against the philosophy of GL. DirectX allows it but the same as exporting the pci id, it is not something that should be exported in my opinion. Roderick -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?

Did someone mention a nice way to query amount of video card's onboard VRAM?

Hi, I'm picking up that topic again. I lost the original mail, so I apologize for the lost in-reply-to references. I think we have a few topics to talk to the X people about. If nobody else volunteers I could go to the conference personally, however, I'd need some support financing the travel costs. However, I'm European, so it might work better for someone local in the US. A few proposed topics: * Relative mouse movements * A few new GL extensions. Only partially concerns Xorg, but I think it is reasonable to present them there in the hope that ATI, Nvidia and Mesa people are there. -> Flat shading vertex colors -> sRGB writing without blending -> Texture rectangles with normalized coords -> GLSL support for some D3D shader instructions(mova, lit) -> More widespread support for a few existing extensions * Other things?

Second what video drivers are you using? In short when programs contain a 'small' 3d view rendered using either opengl or direct3d, we render to an X window which is made offscreen using X Composite. The contents of this window is then copied to the right location. The problem is that this method isn't supported on all video drivers yet. Basically it is the same functionality which is needed to get a glxgears window to render on a compiz cube. Regards, Roderick -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?

Valgrind results. Update for glibc-2.6.

by Dan Kegel

Today's valgrind results online at http://kegel.com/wine/valgrind/logs-2008-02-25-summary.txt http://kegel.com/wine/valgrind/logs-2008-02-25/ Nothing too special (thanks for the cleanup, James), but this is the first set of results after updating my test machine from feisty to gutsy, and I had to apply http://kegel.com/wine/valgrind/futimesat.patch to my copy of valgrind svn to handle the new glibc properly. Already reported to Valgrind; see http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=a71bd89a0802240546…

Getting something basic running shouldn't be too hard, but a full replacement (including fragment processing) would probably be too much work. Of course I'd rather write it myself :-) but I guess that's not going to happen.

Could I ask you to arrange to transfer that to the Software Freedom Conservancy? (That's our 'official' holder for things like this). And I think we need to get a raft of folks up to level 30 on #winehackers, starting with kai, and I'd appreciate it if you'd make me and julliard level 40 on both. Cheers, Jeremy

AppDB stats

by Tony Lambregts

Just a little note to all about the appdb stats. We now have 9000 application versions in the database. http://appdb.winehq.org/appdbStats.php Users: 23474 Comments: 21305 Application families: 5814 Versions: 9000 Application maintainers: 1462 Test reports: 18572 Screenshots: 6234 The Application maintainer stats is the most interesting in that we have 1462 individuals who now maintain applications. Most of these are regular users of wine and I for one really appreciate their effort in helping others. I would also like to recognize the individuals who have helped improve the AppDB code lately.

Sorry that I've not been in IRC for ages, just lots to deal with outside of computer-land these days. For the record it took about a year and a half for the group registration to go through. AFAIK I now have overriding rights and control of the channels (although it's not shown in access). If anyone needs anything added or changed (including hostmasks) just email me.
