Summary: PowerPoint 2003 slows down dramatically. Product: Wine Version: 1.1.31 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: lukasz.wojnilowicz@gmail.com
The problem is that on Wine 1.1.31 PowerPoint 2003 works very very slow. I start application and see how all elements on the main screen of PP2003 are slowly drawn.
When I use Compiz, my computer hangs so I need to reset or wait for long time so my computer unlocks for a second.
The same happens for all AutoCADs 2008 when I'm in "2D Drafting & Annotation" mode. I see that all small icons from toolbox are drawn but it's very very slow.
No problem at all on Wine 1.1.30. Regression test did give:

--- Comment #1 from Roderick Colenbrander thunderbird2k@gmail.com 2009-12-19 05:16:56 --- That patch in combination with previous patches moves 2D rendering over to XRender. This is needed to fix some major 2D rendering issues and in general it also improves performance a lot. I'm not sure what display drivers you are using but I fear that they don't accelerate some parts of XRender which results in software rendering. What happens if you don't use compiz?

(In reply to comment #1)

I'm using 195.22 downloaded from vendor site on NVIDIA 9xxx. All that on 32 bit Fedora 12.
What happens if you don't use compiz?
When I don't use compiz I use metacity. The best is to explain it on screenshot. I start PP2003, the window appears immediately. Then applications starts to draw on white sheet in centre of the screen. Two frames with dotted lines are drawn. I easily took screenshot of that because dot after dot was draw very very slowly. This takes more than 15 seconds. Every time white sheet needs to be redrawn I must wait more than 15 second.

--- Comment #3 from Roderick Colenbrander thunderbird2k@gmail.com 2009-12-19 09:20:31 --- Nvidia drivers should be solid. I just tried powerpoint 2003 on my laptop (uses an ati radeon hd3450) and it works well even though ati doesn't accelerate xrender yet. Perhaps it has something to do with font rendering or so. There are some registry keys to disable font rendering using xrender. (see http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys) Could you check if disabling client side font rendering helps? It might also have to do with the fonts you have installed.

Setting ClientSideWithRender to N helps on Wine 1.1.31 and 1.1.32.
On higher Wines like e.g. 1.1.35 PP2003 wants to send bug report to Microsoft and fails to start. Setting ClientSideWithRender to Y solves that issue, but again it's unbelievable slow. I'm attaching terminal output.

--- Comment #5 from Roderick Colenbrander thunderbird2k@gmail.com 2009-12-19 09:59:33 --- I think I know what will help. By default we have font smoothing disabled. Try to set it to enabled (e.g. using winetricks). With smoothing enabled, font rendering is a LOT faster on nvidia.

ClientSideWithRender=Y, fontsmooth-gray, fontsmooth-rgb, Wine-1.1.31 and I've got still the same problem, PP2003 is still very slow.

That bug isn't a regression. It's for Wine 1.1.33. It seems to me like it renders quite faster than in my case.

Well, it was first reported for 1.1.33. But I just did a check in 1.1.24, and bug 20882 was already there.
What you describe does sound much slower than what I'm seeing, and I have no problem with fonts, just graphics. This is on an nVidia 7600GS, 185.18.14 driver.
Isn't the 195.22 driver beta? Have you tried the stable release?

I don't suspect any deficiency in drivers because all works flawlessly on earlier Wine. I think that ClientSideWithRender is a clue which we should stick with.
It may be so that there is no problems for NVIDIA 7xxx and there is problem for NVIDIA 9xxx despite the same graphic drivers. This is the case for Test Drive Unlimited or Fallout 3 (gfxs inverted)

Not everything a driver does is accelerated. They tend to accelerate common scenarios. It is just that as of Wine 1.1.31 we delegate more tasks to XRender and likely hit some stuff which the Nvidia drivers don't accelerate.
Open dlls/winex11.drv/xrender.c and look for 'BOOL X11DRV_XRender_SetPhysBitmapDepth(X_PHYSBITMAP *physBitmap, const DIBSECTION *dib) ' add the following line (below 'ColorShifts shifts;'): return FALSE;
Then recompile and try again. Likely it is fast again then (it just disables the new code).
Does the issue also occur on Powerpoint 2003 viewer?
