Bug #: 32586 Summary: Guild Wars 2: Installation window is hidden Product: Wine Version: 1.5.19 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: sworddragon2@aol.com Classification: Unclassified
After reinstalling my system I wanted to install Guild Wars 2 too. The installer downloaded the initial files (~10 MB) and after this it switched to the window where I can install the game but it was visible for less than a second. The window was still available in my taskbar but I couldn't maximize it anymore.
A workaround to still install the game is to click the installation button in the few milliseconds the installation window is visible.

--- Comment #2 from sworddragon2@aol.com --- I could isolate the problem between version 1.5.14 and 1.5.15. In version 1.5.15 there was also a bug fixed related to the launcher: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15118
But I'm currently unable to compile old versions so I can't test now if reverting the commit fixes the problem.

--- Comment #3 from hanska2@luukku.com --- So is this still a problem with recent wine? If so some debug could help.

--- Comment #4 from triangle400@gmail.com --- I have a somewhat recent client on my machine, less than a week for sure. I tried running the gw.exe file with the latest version of wine, the computer froze and the power supply fan was working overtime. Then i did my homework, installed PlayOnLinux, tried again with my downloader, with a fresh install. Same.
I ended up noticing there's a panel up that i can't see with random mouseovers while the computer is unresponsive. Mouse still moves around but nothing else works, alt F4, ctrl-alt-del, alt-tab... Nothing short of holding the power button.
I could try to get you this "debug" thing if i can get instructions for it.

The Guild Wars 2 launcher was updated so that this issue doesn't appear anymore with Wine 1.5.15 (and also not with Wine 1.7.28).

--- Comment #6 from triangle400@gmail.com --- I would like to say that even though "the launcher was patched and this issue is gone" Trying to install the game crashes my computer, everytime. I tried to pipe the terminal output to file but the data isn't logged because i have to force close the computer.
Now i don mind if this is something you can't be bothered to fix, just don't go telling me it's working fine.

--- Comment #7 from sworddragon2@aol.com --- Your crashing issue sounds like a complete different one and you should maybe create a new ticket if there isn't already one.

If your entire computer locks up, it's a kernel/driver bug (usually video drivers), not a wine bug.
