The corresponding Microsoft test takes hours to complete. If time is an issue, then the test should be split up into a quick test and an exhaustive test. Also, volume and pan tests on primary and secondary buffers is not the same thing as 3D. They just happen to be similar now because we don't support hardware acceleration yet.

failure report: Astrum installer
by Dan Kegel May 23, 2004

May 23, 2004

Looking through the debug log for my failed attempt to install picasa, I saw that the installer it uses is called Astrum; see http://www.thraexsoftware.com/aiw/ A free demo of that installer is downloadable from http://www.thraexsoftware.com/download/aiw.exe Predictably, it doesn't run under Wine, either; it also puts up a dialog box at the beginning (which unhelpfully doesn't show any text), and if you click "ok", it just puts up the same dialog box again. I tried for a while to figure out WINEDEBUG settings that would provide some illumination about what's wrong. Best I came up with was WINEDEBUG=warn+all,+dialog,+text wine aiw.exe > log 2>&1 in hopes I could tell what the missing text was, but no dice. Given that this is a free-ish installer, and more apps might start using it than just Picasa, maybe it's worth looking into... - Dan -- My technical stuff: http://kegel.com My politics: see http://www.misleader.org for examples of why I'm for regime change

I discussed abstracting WINE user32/gdi32 and creating a Win32k.sys implementation for Wine so we could try to hide the x11drv behind it but at the time Alexandre does not seem very interested in the idea. The way it stands right now while WINE is more correct in its functionality its implementation is not 100% correct for the design we are trying to replicate. If we can change this in WINE, then sure lets share even more and stop duplicating work. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

tlhelp32 problem
by andrejoh＠c2i.net May 23, 2004

May 23, 2004

Hi! While trying to get Anarchy Online working with Wine, I discovered that dynamically getting symbols from the running program does not work properly in Wine. The attached example code shows the problem; when running in Windows, I get this output The mangled name is "?Instantiate(a)MyTestClass@@SAPAV1(a)PAVObjectArchive_c@fun@@@Z" Searching in "ntdll.dll" Searching in "kernel32.dll" Searching in "Factory.dll" Searching in "MSVCP60D.dll" Searching in "MSVCRTD.dll" Searching in "Test.dll" Found the function at 00321023 Creating a new object! The returned text is "Found the right one!" whereas when running this in Wine, this is the output [andrej(a)rivendell tst]$ PATH=$PATH:$PWD wine tst The mangled name is "?Instantiate(a)MyTestClass@@SAPAV1(a)PAVObjectArchive_c@fun@@@Z" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" Searching in "" The returned text is "<function for "MyTestClass" not found>" If the test for a ".dll" ending is removed (as can be seen in the output, the name returned is empty, so it will always fail), this is the output [andrej(a)rivendell tst]$ PATH=$PATH:$PWD wine tst The mangled name is "?Instantiate(a)MyTestClass@@SAPAV1(a)PAVObjectArchive_c@fun@@@Z" Searching in "" Searching in "" Found the function at 0x408a9023 Creating a new object!

great improvements!
by Marius Andreiana May 23, 2004

May 23, 2004

Hi I've been using wine for a long time (without any MS Windows dll). I've upgraded it to the latest version rpm once I installed Fedora Core 2 and I've happily noted these improvements: * /etc/wine for global config options * automatic creation of ~/.wine (drives, C:) There are still some fedora core issues, already in bugzilla. As the roadmap says, would be nice to have stable releases which focus on running by default (without any tweaks) common software, such as IE and Photoshop. (like crossweaver office) Thanks! -- Marius Andreiana Galuna - Solutii Linux in Romania http://www.galuna.ro

Tib.StackBase should point to the base of the stack as it has been allocated, no matter how it's used later on. Most likely you need to fix wine_switch_to_stack or something like that. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

Fwd: TGMarlett
by David Hammerton May 22, 2004

May 22, 2004

Thanks Steven, However - just a thought here.. Do we want to simply work with the '.ttf' file, or should we keep the 'source' in CVS also? The 'source' file is a '.sfd' file created with PfaEdit [http://pfaedit.sourceforge.net/oldindex.html] now called FontForge [http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/] I'm not really familiar with what extra data the '.sfd' file may have compared to the '.ttf' that may be useful. Is anyone familiar with this stuff? Is the '.sfd' pretty much useless when we have the '.ttf'? Either way, both can be found here (although the '.ttf' Steven sent is probably better, as it contains those fixes he mentions): http://craz.net/files/ Cheers, David Begin forwarded message: > From: Steven Edwards <steven_ed4153(a)yahoo.com> > Date: May 19, 2004 9:21:18 AM GMT+10:00 > To: wine-patches(a)winehq.com > Subject: TGMarlett > Reply-To: wine-devel(a)winehq.org > > Hello, > This is a update to the Marlett replacement developed by TransGamming. > It is needed to get Steam working on Wine.
