[Bug 22804] New: Games refuse to start: Fatal error in ins1a[n].tmp

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22804

Summary: Games refuse to start: Fatal error in ins1a[n].tmp
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.44
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

console dump

Tested on: Dungeon Siege 2 (retail & v2.2), Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines
(retail, v1.2, unofficial v6.5)

Installers work flawlessly. Trying to start the games' main .exe or Dungeon
Siege's video config executable leads to a GUI-error which roughly translates
to:

Program error
Fatal errors appeared in the program   ins1a[n].tmp   so it had to quit.

(with [n] being an incremental number and the prefix ins1a changing sometimes,
example above from Dungeon Siege 2 v2.2, there are no further explanations
given)

Tried with Wine (open -a Wine ....EXE and
/Applications/Wine.app/Ressorces/bin/wine ...EXE), with WineBottler, with
Crossover Games Demo; each using both X-servers available (Apple's X11 and
XQuartz)

Under Bootcamp both games install and play normally.

System: MacBook Pro i7 15"
2.66 GHz Intel Core i7
4 GB RAM
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics (integrated), NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M
Mac OSX 10.6.3 Snow Leopard

(a guess: on demand SnowLeopard silently switches to discrete graphics card and
back, thus leading to misbehaviour of X11?)

You need to fix 2 problems above with your setup first.

Hello,

no answer for long time, marking abandoned (and possibly invalid due to broken
Wine setup).
