--- Comment #16 from Tom a3732043@drdrb.net --- Today, I checked many PlayOnLInux Wine versions (without using PoL). Almost every version is broken. I found just one version which works great, high FPS. almost no lag, even no more texture/coloring bugs:
1.7.15-CS-0.6-7173c38
My current impression is, that there is no other version working like this specific one. Everything works great. Even bigger WvW fights are working better.
Also I don't see any memory leaks with this version. I only have to leave GW2 for reseting the keyboard bug.
Some other findings:
* It feels like the memory leak might be related to Pulseaudio 5.0?! - the current wine 1.7.x versions seem to be broken with some systems:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39186
* If I use Teamspeak while playing GW2 sometimes TS runs with 100% CPU. I had it only once while testing today, but why is TS suddenly running at 10%. I guess, it's somehow related to Pulseaudio 5 and Wine.
* The version "1.3.34-rawinput2" immediately mixes keyboard shortcuts from the start. It's exactly the same issue like the newer 1.7.x show after very large and laggy WvW fights. Is some rawinput2 code left in 1.7.x?
I hope, this helps a bit with debugging.
