[Bug 31528] New: Left 4 Dead 2 display freezes when KDE KWin desktop effects are enabled

Bug #: 31528
           Summary: Left 4 Dead 2 display freezes when KDE KWin desktop
                    effects are enabled
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.10
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

Launched Left 4 Dead 2. KDE desktop effects were turned on before launching.
Noticed that Left 4 Dead 2 did not display anything during game startup
(neither Valve intro or the game intro or menu) - however, the background music
and sound was being played. Turned off desktop effects and then the game menu
showed up immediately - the game in itself was running fine, only the display
froze.

Turned on desktop effects again, and the game display froze once again. If I
moved my mouse over the menu options, I could hear the sound that indicates the
mouse hovering over an option, but the display did not update (the menu option
over which I was hovering did not turn white). Turned off desktop effects and
the display immediately unfroze.

Please add your system specs (like graphic card, driver version). Does this
work with an earlier version of wine?

Sorry for the late reply, it looks like it works now when desktop effects are
enabled. However, there is another problem, when another program, for example
this browser is open, and I enable desktop effects, only the wine window is
displayed (I have set Wine to emulate a Windows desktop with a resolution of
1366*768, so it covers the entire screen) and I am unable to switch to any
other program.

When I turn off desktop effects, I am able to switch to other programs.

I am using Wine on a laptop, with a Radeon HD 6650M graphics card and with the
AMD Catalyst 12.11 beta driver.

So, after several months I am using the open source radeon driver, and this
problem doesn't affect me right now. Resolving.
