Summary: Autocad 2005 bug list Product: Wine Version: 1.0-rc4 Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: max@veneto.com
I open this "metabug" in the effort to bring AutoCAD 2005 at leas to Gold status. Here I'll post errors encountered from setup up to application successful run, with links to opened bugs related to this application. I hope that will serve as a ordered guide to solve all of them.
Starting with release rc-4, clean .wine directory.
Here we encounter http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13599 Installer hangs on vba setup.
Must be solved, but the workaround from Louis Lenders (which is only a temporary solution aimed to avoid a crash) allow the installer to finish :
http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=13812
The hack is a patch on dlls/msi/custom.c file.
So, let's start with setup on patched wine, clean .wine folder. Now the setup finishes, but with many errors regarding dotnet1.1 setup. See http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9140 , left opened because of dotnet 1.1 setup failure.
So, next step, again clean .wine plus dotnet2.0 installed. The 2.0 is needed because on 1.1 autocad setup tries to install an upgrade, which leads to bug above. Now setup finishes well, and application starts. An error message is shown : "ERROR: identity.ini file format invalid" This error doesn't prevent app to run and is shown only on first start.
Strange enough, all seems to work, even VBA on which bug 13599 was related; btw I just opened VBA ide, and closed it, as I don't use VBA. .NET parts of application, like layer manager, work flawlessy. Autocad finds correctly all linux installed printers and can print on them. 3d modeling works too, I've the feeling that is even faster than in windows xp. Rendering works, as do all stuffs I've tested. So, we can give a "silver" status because of needed hacks on wine and the use of winetricks for dotnet.
Now the bad : text rendering is awfully slow. Working on a drawing with many texts/quotes inside makes scrolling/pannin/zooming a pain. The problem is related ONLY to texts; even very big raster images renders very fast, I'd say even faster than in windows XP. I'll file the bug for text rendering.
Concluding, once solved bug 13599 app could gain gold status; if dotnet 1.1 is solved too (bug 9140) and the "slow text rendering bug "it could have platinum status.
Ciao

Closing.
Well, I've seen some of them in database, so I thought it was a good idea to have a central point collecting all autocad bugs found, as I've seen some interest (finally!) on it on these days. Having many sparse bugs reports won't help to solve the problem, IMHO.

Hi Max, yeah, but a lot of them already have been closed. There's some kind if hidden agreement not to open Meta bugs anymore, but that you couldn't know of course...

Yes, I didn't :-) Even looked at guidelines, before posting. BTW, thank you for the answer !

File individual bug reports, and link to them in the AppDB.
