Summary: Wine freezes the whole system -> hardware reset - Warcraft III Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: clemensb@gmx.net
Sometimes Warcraft III crashes the whole system - the display freezes, i can see the last frame of the game... and can do nothing but a hardware reset. I marked this bug critical cause I think the real big problem isn't that Warcraft III freezes the system - the terrifying thing is the fact that wine is able to crashes my whole system, making me unable to do anything but a hardware reset. It occurs on my ThinkPad R61 with integrated Intel GMA965 X3100 graphic card.
It doesn't matter if its 64 or 32-Bit, i tried several Ubuntu and Archlinux versions, with different mesa/X/drivers. It occurs in all wine version i've used so far... maybe on some more often, on some less. It's total random when it happens - but most of the time when I change from X (Gnome) to Warcraft (Alt-Tab or things like that) or the other way round.
So I guess the main question is, why is wine able to crashes my system? Why I'm not able to do something other than a hardware reset? But of course, it's a big problem too that Warcraft III freezes.
Please ask me anything with wich i can help you.

Wine is only a user application (similar to Firefox/xpdf or other), and a user-application can never freeze the whole system.

Special to Wine is, that it use the OpenGL/X-Driver much more than all other apps. That make bugs in the Driver visible.

Which Driver and which version?

Please specify the the Versions, you tested (newest in the Details above)

Sounds like a Driver-Bug

You can restart X with "ctrl - alt - Backspace" You can switch to a console with "ctrl - alt - F1"

Sorry, I have no deep Knowledge about d3d/OpenGL.

Thank you, sorry for that, now I know.

I would tell that to everyone else too... but it doesn't look like that.

At the moment packages.ubuntu.com doesn't work, so I cant look what was the driver version in Ubuntu 7.10, but at this version it doesn't worked for sure. And the moment it is with Ubuntu 8.04 the version 2.2.1 - same problem. And with Archlinux I tried at this time some more (and newer) versions (and other X/mesa versions) and they dont worked too. Ok, atm there is a newer version in Archlinux (2.3) wich I haven't tried so far.
It occurs in all wine version i've used so far...

From 0.9.45 (wich I use at the moment, it works best so far) till 1.1.0. What
details to tell?

Probably you're right, but I cant say ;)

Trust me, I tried every possible trick. There is nothing to do but a hardware reset (maybe I'm possible to connect via ssh or something like this with an other computer, can't test this atm.
But I just remember something that happend a while ago, the crash occurs while I was voice chatting via mumble. And i couldn't do anything, but mumble was still alive. So yeah, the whole system doesn't crash, but I'm unable to do anything.

In my opinion using ssh from another computer to kill not responding X is too much. There is much simpler and cleaner way. Try Alt+SysRq+K. This should kill everything in current console including X (even if it doesn't respond anymore). If this doesn't work then you can be sure that you triggered severe driver bug because this SysRq sequence talks to the kernel directly. And if it doesn't work, there was either driver or hardware severe failure - both unrelated to Wine; in other words, if this proves to be a driver issue this bug should be marked as INVALID.

Ohh, I didn't know that 1.1.0 is too old...
Thank you for helping, I will post the bug at freedesktop.
