graphical Linux
by Lonnie Cumberland April 24, 2004

April 24, 2004

Hello All, I am going to work on a project that will rely heavily on OpenGL and Wine. I wanted to get some of your opinions on which Linux distribution has the easiest setup and install for dealing with OpenGL and Wine. I will make a fresh install of the best latest version and build on it. did try Mandrake once but the OpenGL did not seem to work with my NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

DirectPlay
by Ryan Underwood April 24, 2004

April 24, 2004

I have seen some mentions of work on DirectPlay. Who is currently working on this, and what are the implementation plans? I am mainly curious if it is planned to be network compatible with the same programs running on Windows. There could be some drawback to this, because the old versions of DirectPlay are not NAT friendly. So in the case of Wine, if the user is running a program that uses an old version of DirectPlay (i.e. the DX6 version), perhaps we could give them the choice to maintain compatibility with Windows clients (and thus be subject to NAT issues), or to use a more robust WINE-only version instead, perhaps an identical protocol to the one that would be implemented to support the later more robust versions of DirectPlay. -- Ryan Underwood, <nemesis(a)icequake.net>

winetest: dissect & gather
by Dimitrie O. Paun April 24, 2004

April 24, 2004

Hi Feri, Here is a list of things that I see as potential problems: (I haven't checked the code, so they may already be handled) 1. Multiple builds For a given BUILD_ID, we can have reports comming from different builds now, that is from different winetest-*.exe. That means a much of URLs, etc. 2. Multiple reports For a given BUILD_ID, we may get multiple reports from the same client (same Tag). This is because of (1), we can ask each client to run not one, but a bunch of the available tests (this is very useful, say we have each client run a mingw build, and a msvc build). 3. Build Info This is a minor issue, and we can safely ignore it for now, but maybe we can provide a little icon beside each URL that we list in (1), that would popup a window and display the Build Info. 4. Template Not a biggie, but maybe we can transform the generated report into a template so that it integrates nicely with the rest of the site (menu to the left, etc). Jer, what do we need to do to achive that? I think it should be very easy, but... -- Dimi.

Re: Winetest: outstanding issues (SERVING)
by Dimitrie O. Paun April 23, 2004

April 23, 2004

And the thrist and last installment: SERVING (Brian) --------------- What we need to support: -- multiple publishers -- multiple files for the same build for each publisher -- various distribution policies What we need to do: -- maintain a pool of releases as described in my previous mail. This is a map/hastable keyd by the published filename. -- persist this to disk, in case of server crash, load it from disk on startup. -- currently we use <program>/url.mask to get to the url mask. We need to add the publisher info in there, so this will need to change to: <publisher>/<program>/url.mask Similar for the other files. -- the rest remains unchanaged, as Brian correctly mentioned. We can have different distribution policies: pick a random file, send all files, etc. Given that we have few published files, and tests are short, I suggest we send them all. So what we have to do is to add a loop around most of the script generation: for file in pool: generate script commands to download it and run it It looks like there aren't that many changes after all. -- Dimi.

Lately I've been doing a lot of installer building with the NSIS installer(http://nsis.sf.net). We could easily package winetest as a self-extracting and executing installer that was transparent to the user. The installer would simply extract the actual winetest.exe to windows/temp, start it up and wait until it completed before exiting. This should be transparent to winrash as well.

Problem with GetVolumeInformation
by Chris McKenzie April 23, 2004

April 23, 2004

The refers to the 2004-03-09 ChangeLog, specifically: * dlls/kernel/Makefile.in, dlls/kernel/volume.c, dlls/ntdll/file.c, documentation/samples/config, documentation/wine.conf.man, files/drive.c, include/drive.h, include/winnt.h: Reimplemented GetVolumeInformation and SetVolumeLabel; volume label and serial number are now stored in the filesystem instead of in the config file (partly based on a patch by Eric Pouech). GetVolumeInformation's new implementation has 2 problems: 1. For software that was previously registered with a "made up" serial number via the "serial=" directive in the config file, the software (for me Altera MaxPlus) will no refuse to run claiming a change in serial. 2. If the function fails to claim a serial number (What actually _did_ happen with me) it will fall back on *serial=0. In my opinion this does not seem reasonable. I propose two options for wineconfig. First, one that says UseConfigSerial = [Y/N] Which will use the serial number in the config file and ignore the one on disk (This is useful for people that registered their software before the new function implementation) And the second option will be to reinstate the serial= for the drive descriptions. This should be the fallback serial number if the function fails, instead of the value *serial=0. I made a quick hack to return the value that I needed - however, I have not dealt with the kernel or the wine code extensively so I cannot put for a patch that does this at this time. However, I think this is a much more sensible design decision. Thank you. Sincerely, Christopher J. McKenzie cjm(a)ucdavis.edu
