Created attachment 47021 [details] origin (EA) x11 live-lock
Hello folks,
another one: "origin" (ea.com) also crashes or live-locks sometimes on startup. Attaching a winedbg thread dump with 7 (!) threads locked in x11.
Workaround:
--- snip --- $ pwd /home/focht/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Origin
$ taskset -c 0 wine ./Origin.exe --- snip ---
$ wine --version wine-1.7.9-209-gb231b4b
Regards
I confirm that "taskset" allow to run Origin without problem. BUT if you launch Origin.exe with one CPU (with taskset), the game launched from Origin still will use one core.
See duplicate bug #35288 Example with Mass Effect 3 game (only exist on Origin) with High graphic options : - Very good performance when Origin is launched without taskset. - Very bad performance with taskset.
