When trying to playing "The Elder Scrolls III: Tribunal" version 1.4.1313 german I get now the following fixme's: fixme:d3d:IDirect3DDevice8Impl_LightEnable Light enabled requested but light not defined, so defining one! Now the cone's of the lights are visible on surfaces near a source. Looks better now, but the known issues (body texture missing, crash after a while) still persists. Michael

Question about WineX licences
by Jonathan Wilson Sept. 30, 2003

Sept. 30, 2003

From what I understand, if you download the WineX source tree, you get code under LGPL, code under X11 and code under APL (which is basicly a licence chosen to make sure that others cant just grab those bits and use them) Does anyone know which bits are under APL? I know the directx bits are but what else is TransGaming holding back?

If the behavior is subject to change, there is no way you can test that at configure time. This needs to be a run time check. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Fix for bug 640 - moving thin frames leaves mess
by Pavel Roskin Sept. 29, 2003

Sept. 29, 2003

Hello! I've made a patch for http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=640 I'm sending it here because I don't 100% sure it's ready for wine-patches. But the patch fixes an important problem and I don't want it to be unnoticed. On certain versions of XFree86 (4.2.1 + Raveon 7000/VE), focus rectangles are painted in white. Also, windows with thin frames (including all popup windows) create mess when dragged, except in when managed mode. It appears that GXxor value used in graphics/x11drv/graphics.c is misinterpreted - instead of xoring the background with the pen color, the pen color is painted as is. Another xoring doesn't hide the rectangle, thus creating mess of white dotted rectangles. The radical fix would be to avoid GXxor completely, but I'm leaving it to gurus and I'm not sure if it's needed. Fortunately, there is a correct and justifiable fix on the higher level. The focus rectangle (e.g. the rectangle around active buttons) should be painted using the system text color. Xoring this color with background is wrong. Even on systems where it works, it changes the color from black to dark gray (light gray xor white), although not too much to notice it. DrawFocusRect() has been changed to use R2_COPYPEN mode. On the other hand, draw_moving_frame() should use xor, so using DrawFocusRect() is wrong there, once the later is fixed. PatBlt() with PATINVERT works just fine with buggy XFree86 and it's already used for thick frames. The patch uses a checkered brush to imitate the dotted line. The result is very close to what I see on Windows 2000 - dotted line of one pixel wide using inverted color. In fact, the frame seems to be redrawn faster and smoother than without the patch on the system without the bug. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin

Hi Jerry, With your patch applied, I get a write access to a NULL pointer when trying to get sound with dsound (winmm tests are running ok.) Since I was using precompiled RPMs from freshrpms.net when doing the first try, I switched to 0.9.7 sources. Same result. I attached a trace from a run of wine dsound_test.exe.so dsound --debugmsg +wave,+dsound,+dsound3d Could you have a look on this ? ===== Sylvain Petreolle (spetreolle_at_users_dot_sourceforge_dot_net) ICQ #170597259 Say NO to software patents Dites NON aux brevets logiciels "What if tomorrow the War could be over ?"

decompiling
by Ivan Leo Murray-Smith Sept. 29, 2003

Sept. 29, 2003

Hi list, to translate the wine dlls to italian, my idea was to just get the strings from a disassembled m$ dll. Also, the text strings in wine dlls are a little different here and there respect to windows, and I was thinking that it would be a good idea to uniform them, can I do this or would it be a DMCA violation (Not that I care about the DMCA but the main cvs server is in the US)?

winetests.exe with tests from CVS 2003-09-26 can be found here: http://vmlinux.org/~jakov/Wine/ (The bigger EXE size is due to tests generated from MSVC instead of MinGW.) This winetests.exe should not pop up various error requesters any more, so if you click past any, please note it in the comment text box. regards, Jakob

The anti patent petition was a success, the EU law approved on the 24th has been changed so much sine the original version that software freedom is preserved, so decss will stay legal in europe, thanks to all that signed the petition.
