Summary: Steam: after April 25 update, logs in, starts to paint main window and news window, then crashes Product: Wine Version: 1.1.44 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: packagemonkey@yahoo.com
I have had Steam working for a long time; finished HL2, got almost halfway through Far Cry and HL2 Episode 1, etc. Steam pushed an update around April 25, 2010, and ever since then, it has crashed after putting up the main Steam window and partially painting it (mainly the category headings at the top), and putting up the smaller "news items" window but not painting its contents. The news items titlebar shows the number of updates (e.g., "1 of 8") before it crashes; it manages to record which one it displayed, because the next time it shows one fewer available (e.g., "1 of 7").
There's very little in the console under normal start conditions; it gets through the CellID connectivity tests, then prints a few error and fixme lines:
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {77f10cf0-3db5-4966-b520-b7c54fd35ed6} not registered err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {77f10cf0-3db5-4966-b520-b7c54fd35ed6} could be created for context 0x1 fixme:wbemprox:wbem_locator_ConnectServer 0x1a0e10, L"ROOT\CIMV2", (null), (null), (null), 0x00000080, (null), (nil), 0x316d2d8) fixme:winhttp:WinHttpGetIEProxyConfigForCurrentUser returning no proxy used fixme:win:RegisterDeviceNotificationA (hwnd=0x1010c, filter=0x32dc10,flags=0x00000004) returns a fake device notification handle! fixme:winhttp:WinHttpGetIEProxyConfigForCurrentUser returning no proxy used fixme:threadpool:RtlQueueWorkItem Flags 0x4 not supported
That last line is repeated about 40 times before the crash.
