--- Comment #43 from Michael Abbott michael@araneidae.co.uk 2012-02-04 13:57:29 CST --- Ok, can you be clear please: are you saying that the game in question is at fault, is the source of this bug?
If so, why does googling for the error message produced by this game only bring up this bug report? In other words, why does only Wine appear to provoke this particular failure?
Have to admit that http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2154053 (Rage Issues, Bugs And Fixes Thread) shows *lots* of trouble with this game ... but searching the forum for SetPixelFormat only brings up references to DOOM3, which works perfectly on my machine (and Abe's Oddyssey, about which I know nothing).
So maybe there's something subtle here?
