Summary: stepmania 3.9 locks up after a kde pop-up Product: Wine Version: 1.1.29 Platform: x86 URL: http://www.stepmania.com OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: eur0maniac@yahoo.ca
I used Wine version 1.1.29 to launch the freeware Stepmania DDR game, and I noticed that when a KDE based alert appears, it would usually never disappear like it normally does when the wine program is not in use. Instead, the alert stays on forever, and the game locks up. The only way out is to force a power down of the computer and to turn it back on. Sometimes, this results in the data loss on the FAT32 partition the game is on.
Such KDE alerts are as follows:
-- a large bubble identifying the program the arrow is pointing at in the taskbar -- a bubble in kopete messenger indicating the message the sender is sending -- a box from kopete indicating one's online status.
I have tried this using "windows vista" and then using "windows xp" in "application settings" of the wine control panel.
