Bug ID: 37508 Summary: Some Bethesda games sometimes freeze during gameplay Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: hewanci@gmail.com Distribution: ---
So far having this in both Skyrim and Fallout 3 Steam versions, could not test in Oblivion and Borderlands 1 yet, as they don't work for me yet, and Borderlands 2 seems to be free of it.
- During gameplay, sometimes the game simply freezes up completely, and the process needs to be terminated manually. - Happens roughly about 1-3 times per hour of playing. - Most often happens when fast traveling or changing zone or from exterior to interior. Rarely also happens randomly, with seemingly no event to connect it to.
OS: Arch Linux 64 bit 3.16.3-1 Desktop: KDE 4.14.1 Hardvare: - Intel Core i3 550 @ 3.20GHz SSE4 (2 cores + Hyper Threading) - NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT 1GB Wine version: 1.7.29-2 multilib from official repositories

--- Comment #6 from Vlad Blanton vblanton@gmail.com --- I had this problem as well (Wine 1.9.8+staging and Skyrim updated to latest/last version).
I think I've resolved it by accident. It was related to a similar bug, where keys would get stuck:
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30981
Follow the fix mentioned there, which is to disable repeat keystrokes either in the settings of your favorite DE (I use Gnome, under Settings > Keyboard)) or using the commandline issue this command:
xset r off
and remember to do "xset r on" afterwards

--- Comment #7 from mirh mirh@protonmail.ch --- Try 1.9.9. It might have something to do with bug 29281
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37508
--- Comment #8 from Felix Yan felixonmars@archlinux.org --- The freezes are still present with wine 1.9.22.

--- Comment #9 from SteveK stevekej@gmail.com --- As Vlad mentioned, disabling repeating keystrokes (xset r off) seems to fix this issue. As a layman, I think there is a probability that somehow wine is somehow storing repeated keystrokes, thus causing the memory build-up. Bear in mind that using the e.g. move forward key involves holding it down, so repeated keys seems to be the culprit here.

--- Comment #10 from SteveK stevekej@gmail.com --- After further testing, I don't think the keyboard repeat is the issue. as the freeze still occurs after 'xset r off'.

--- Comment #11 from Ken Sharp imwellcushtymelike@gmail.com --- Does this still occur with Wine 9.7 or later?
