[Bug 13327] New: StarryNight Pro: Window is painted black

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13327

Summary: StarryNight Pro: Window is painted black
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Starry Night Pro Plus 6 paints the screen black when started.

This is an amateur astronomy planetarium program that uses the QuickTime
libraries to render the night sky.

I am aware that QuickTime has issues about painting the screen black. The
solution to the QuickTime problem is quite well known: Set the Video rendering
to Safe Mode (GDI only).

The above hack solves the problem of QuickTime painting the screen black, but
does not solve the problem of Starry Night painting the screen black.

Starry Night window is black

Window is black. However I suspect that this is due to QuickTime rather than
StarryNight itself.

Here is the output from the console

I don't understand much from the console output, but I think it might help
others determine why the window is black.

Could you try if applying this patch helps anything:

If it helps, it probably is a dupe

Sorry for the dumb question but how do I apply it? :)

What does this patch do?

In wine's source-tree do:

patch -Np1 -i name_of_the_patch

Then recompile wine.

Just to try to track down where the bug is; in your log i saw an error about
wglsharelist, and that might be the problem

How do I compile wine? My version comes from the Ubuntu repositories.

Thanks. I will try to apply the patch as you say. Perhaps this can help track
down the problem.

I just downloaded wine-1.0-rc1.tar.bz2 from SourceForge and installed the
build-essential package from the repositories. Any additional packages I need
to install? Also, do I need to uninstall the wine package before I compile?

The README mentions the wineinstall tool. Do I just run this without need to
run make? Sorry for many questions. Once I get this done it will be easy the
next time around. :)

Running ./tools/wineinstall I got the following message:

configure: error: no suitable flex found. Please install the 'flex' package.

So I installed flex by sudo apt-get install flex and restarted
./tools/wineinstall and got the following message:

configure: error: no suitable bison found. Please install the 'bison' package.

I installed bison by sudo apt-get install bison and restarted
./tools/wineinstall and got the following message:

Install the X development headers and try again.

So which package do I need to install now? I have a feeling this is the last
package I need to install before wineinstall succeeds.

I guess handiest is to use wine-git, to have the very latest development
version

see http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting?highlight=%28regression%29
(section "Setup Info")

Then do './configure --verbose'
to see if you miss any recommended packages.

If you think it's ok, just do './configure && make depend && make'

It's easiest to run wine out of the source-tree, so you won't have to uninstall
your current wine-package; just run '/tmp/wine-git/wine app.exe' if you
compiled it in /tmp/wine-git for example

I googled for X development headers and learned that I must install xlibs-dev.
However this package doesn't exist in Hardy but I can use xlibs-static-dev in
its place. Having installed that, ./configure && make depend && make worked and
started compiling. However after waiting more than half and hour it exited with
the following message:

-------------
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
winegcc: gcc failed
make[2]: *** [winex11.drv.so] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/bamm/src/wine-1.0-rc1/dlls/winex11.drv'
make[1]: *** [winex11.drv] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bamm/src/wine-1.0-rc1/dlls'
make: *** [dlls] Error 2

Compilation failed, aborting install.
-------------

Additionally, ./configure also complained about the lack of several development
files and simply continued with the message that it will not include them in
the compilation. However I noticed that one of the development files mentioned
was OpenGL. Now Starry Night uses OpenGL so I may need this compiled into Wine.

With each step it seems I need an additional development package.

So what should I do now? Isn't there a binary that I can just download and
overwrite what I have that will have the patch applied? This patch only seems
to affect one file, but I am filling my system with so many dev files just to
test a change in one file.

Just do apt-get build-dep wine and that'll install all the build dependencies
you need. See also, http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages

Wonderful! build-dep did the trick and I did a successful compile of Wine
1.0-rc1. I haven't tried Dan Kegel's script yet, perhaps later when I'm ready
to do git.

Starry Night started fine in the compiled version (without the patch yet) so
this means my compiled wine had everything needed to run Starry Night.

I just applied the patch successfully using the command:
patch -Np1 -i pepakura_wglShareLists.diff

I will report the results after I recompile Wine and test Starry Night on the
recompiled version tonight.

Thanks for your help. I'll probably be using compiled Wine from now on, to
better aid in my bug testing of astronomy applications. (I'll keep the stable
deb version for the sake of others who share my computer, in case my tampering
screws up my Wine.)

 Here is the new output from the console

Done recompiling Wine. Starry Night started fine as before. Unfortunately the
screen is still black.

Attached is the output from the console, using the patched wine.

I didn't attach a new screenshot because it looks the same as the previous one.

It turns out I was wrong about blaming QuickTime for the absence of sky!
According to Starry Night's support:

===
Quicktime is used for some things, but the sky graphics are based on OpenGL (as
opposed to DirectX), so the absence of sky may be a video card driver issue.
