--- Comment #11 from René Kijewski rene.kijewski@fu-berlin.de 2012-09-26 06:23:34 CDT --- One last comment (if someone find this bug by googling):
I noticed the strangest thing right now: I can play [1] if and only if I use WINEDEBUG=+relay,-debug, and then only if I don't pipe the output into /dev/null. I.e. I use 2>&1 >/dev/null the same error occurs, but if I pipe the trace into /dev/urandom, Caesar 3 works. Other games are still affected, though.
