Summary: Star Trek Armada 2 randomly crashes X Product: Wine Version: 1.1.38 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dandart@googlemail.com
Created an attachment (id=26393) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=26393) Backtrace
On launching Star Trek Armada 2 from the desktop icon I can get it to load and run quite smoothly (with loss of drawing of front menu). At some point after (after loading savefile, a few seconds after, a few minute after, not predictable) it would crash X.
But on loading it from command line, the program does not start at all (and thus does not start X), and a bug box pops up and the backtrace attached is dumped.
I'm surprised how far into Linux this has got - to crash X is odd.

--- Comment #1 from Vitaliy Margolen vitaliy@kievinfo.com 2010-02-22 08:45:50 --- Wine is a 100% user space app. By definition it can not crash X server.
What exact command line have you used to start Wine from the command line? And what command and work directory does the desktop icon have?

--- Comment #2 from Dan Dart dandart@googlemail.com 2010-02-22 08:54:02 --- OK. The backtrace crash dump only happens when I am not in the working directory, so that can be explained.
Working directory: ~/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Activision/Star Trek Armada II
Command line: env WINEPREFIX="/home/dan/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Activision\Star Trek Armada II\Armada2.exe"
However it may be a problem that the program still randomly crashes X. Could it be a memory overwrite or buffer overflow in the actual program rather than Wine?

Most likely your video drivers are broken.

--- Comment #5 from Dan Dart dandart@googlemail.com 2010-02-26 06:09:11 --- That's strange. My NVIDIA drivers are from the Ubuntu repository and they work like a charm with 3D games. I guess I should check for a newer release on nvidia.com!
