Summary: The Witcher 2.0 (Gog.com): black screen on launch, have to kill X Product: Wine Version: 1.3.21 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
On my ubuntu 11.04 laptop, where glxinfo | grep str says OpenGL renderer string: GeForce GTS 360M/PCI/SSE2 OpenGL version string: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 270.41.06 I can install Witcher 2 and run its config utility, but launching the game itself yields a black screen even if you tell it to run in a window on a virtual desktop. Killing the game doesn't fix the screen, so it kind of sounds like a problem with the X server. Some people in the appdb have reported success with winetricks glsl=disabled d3dx9 but that didn't help here.
