           Summary: Plastic Animation Paper 4.0 doesn't start
           Product: Wine

Users reported in the WineHQ forum that the application refuses to start in a
recent Wine.

Indeed, Plastic Animation Paper 4.0 is showing an error message when launching
with 1.3.29:
'Fatal error
Unable to set up graphics mode, graphics card must be capable of running
800x600'.

Actually, this is a regression, which happened between 1.3.27 and 1.3.28.
The problem with bisecting is that that the application is broken between these
2 commits:
http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commit/76fecde8fb2d335e4855bec6d36ffe1...
and
http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commit/8e79a7e6644fd6f1e0cfeb8b826e683...

That was bug #28259, affecting several apps/games.

If I apply the patch (in commit [76fecde8fb2d335e4855bec6d36ffe16cbed04f3]) on
[8e79a7e6644fd6f1e0cfeb8b826e683d171d723a] then I receive the same error
message that the application produces in current git.

So I think the offending commit, preventing PAP 4.0 from starting, should be

8e79a7e6644fd6f1e0cfeb8b826e683d171d723a is the first bad commit

Added Stefan to CC.
I must also add that prior to 1.3.23, the application produces the same error
message on startup. So it only works between 1.3.23 and 1.3.28.
PAP 4.0 is now freeware.
