I experience a similar problem, but the 'puppeteer lines' are black, not white.
This either happens all the time in the game, or not at all. If I restart the
game, it sometimes changes. Using the nvidia binary blob.
Terminal output attached, I will provide additional things if you need more.

same issue with wine 1.5.20
There is a workaround (see bug 12771 comment #54) :
Use regedit to add the following key

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D]
"OffscreenRenderingMode"="backbuffer"

I do not get this in current wine (1.5.28), the GOG.com version of the game,
Arch linux x64 and nvidia hardware. Can you please retest in current wine and
upload a new backtrace if you get the problem again? Thank you.

I have gotten this many times after the game has crashed and I have started it
again. Merely restarting the game has not helped once to get rid of it, but
restarting the computer seems to work, as does starting some OpenGL game and
exiting it cleanly.

Perhaps something isn't getting properly initialized?

gog version, wine 1.6, nvidia 313.30

I can confirm this for 1.7.13 in Ubuntu 13.10. I'm using Bumblebee with a
Nvidia gtx 740m. I don't get the problem with the Intel. Things like restarting
the game, or starting an OpenGL game in the same prefix won't solve the issue,
not even temporary for me.

Arch, nvidia gtx 750 ti / 343.22, Xorg 1.16.2, wine 1.7.30. Exactly the same
problem, lines are different shades of brown though. orm=backbuffer makes the
whole game go black with they gui on top of it. Works with fbo.

The patch does not fix the problem for me.

Can someone else test this too who encounters this bug? Would be cool if it did
and I just made a mistake.

I face the same issue with this setup
- Arch linux
- Wine 1.7.38
- GeForce GT 740M

My laptop uses optimus so when i switch to intel the game works fine, there
aren't any noticeable error thrown too.

Does this also occur with the above mentioned patch? I've got the exactly same
set up and issue. The patch did not work for me but to be sure someone else
should test the patch.

I tried something else and it worked, i was using bumblebee and it seems to be
the reason.

I uninstalled it and used only nvidia and the game runs ok now.

Hello !

Bug confirmed on Wine 1.7.45 and Nvidia proprietary driver 352.21.

But i found one solution, it's strange...

Log out/log in your session, open nvidia settings, close nvidia settings.
Launch Witcher, it's perfect. But if you stop witcher and relaunch, line
appear. Repeat manipulation then.

Sorry for my english.

Pc spec:
Intel Pentium G3258 3.2 Ghz
4 go DDR3 1600
Geforce GTX 750 ti 1 go

This patch https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=50908&action=diff by
Matteo Bruni from bug https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34052 fixes this.
It does have a performance hit for me but at last now it is playable when using
bumblebee.
