--- Comment #9 from Tim Mertens tim@filmchicago.org 2009-02-11 21:12:10 --- Created an attachment (id=19398) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=19398) Quicken +synchronous log with ATI gfx card and driver
It appears that this error is not driver/video card related. I tried this again today on another computer running Ubuntu 8.10, Wine 1.1.14 with a much newer ATI graphics card (the exact model escapes me at the moment). The ATI FGLRX proprietary driver is installed and it's running 64-bit Ubuntu, but that doesn't seem to be causing any problems.
The error message is nearly identical to the others. This indicates to me that there is either a bug in Wine or in libxcb (as the launchpad bug seems to be, but none of the workarounds seem to work for me), not in the nvidia drivers.
