Bug ID: 44479 Summary: Battle.net "Failed to create a graphics context. " Product: Wine Version: 2.21 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: hewanci@gmail.com Distribution: ---
As of today, battle-net doesn't work anymore. I believe the app just updated.
After logging in, the app window comes up all black, and a few seconds later halts with the following error:
"Failed to create a graphics context. " https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/12706
Curiously that Blizz support page even says "Note: This error is also occurring with some Linux-based installations using WINE." but does not say anything else.
I tried several things that helped Windows users having the "Failed to create a graphics context." error in the past, as well as some Wine related suggestions.
- Tried setting QT_ANGLE_PLATFORM to "warp" - Ensured my nVidia drivers and Wine are up to date - Ensured I have 32 bit packages for nVidia - Disabled browser acceleration - Tried using both Windows' DX11 dlls as well as Wine's built in ones
I have noticed the following in console:
err:ntdll:NtQueryInformationToken Unhandled Token Information class 24!
err:wgl:X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo couldn't initialize OpenGL, expect problems
Arch Linux KDE 5 Wine 2.21 Staging
Posted to Blizz forums too, just in case: https://us.battle.net/forums/en/bnet/topic/20761646679
