Bug ID: 52331 Summary: 3D game screen blank except in <ALT> <TAB> view (Ubuntu 21.10) Product: Wine Version: 7.0-rc3 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: freehand@tutanota.com Distribution: ---
I'm trying to run two classic open source flight sims, Rowan's Mig Alley and Rowan's Battle of Britain, on Ubuntu 21.10 with wine 7.0 rc3 (Staging). With virtual desktop turned off, a black square occludes the 3D view. Perhaps this is a clue about what is going on - you can fly the aircraft by holding down <ALT> <TAB> task switcher display, although the 3D view is, of course, postage stamp size in this view.
Also holding down the keyboard <CTRL> F6 keyboard focus shortcut causes the display to flash between a black screen and the 3D flight sim view.
If I turn on virtual desktop in wine cfg, the 3D flight sim view works in both games. However, the 2D game canvas view is missing many icons when virtual desktop is on. (The 2D view works fine if virtual desktop is off).
Thus there are two bugs: 1. without virtual desktop, a black square occludes the 3D flight sim view 2. with virtual desktop on, the 2D game canvas view is missing many icons.
Please suggest any ideas about how to fix either of these two bugs.
