http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22583

Summary: Steam crashes x server(?) when starting up
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.43
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux

          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Created an attachment (id=27715)
 --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=27715)
last few lines of "WINEDEBUG=+relay wine /home/william/.wine/drive_c/Program\
Files/Steam/steam.exe &> /home/william/wine.txt"

Since the new steam ui has been released every time it starts up it crashes X
and i have to relogin... all my apps that i had open are closed/crashed

I'm not very good at reporting bugs but i attached the (last couple lines of
the command because there were over 2 million lines and the file size was like
120mb) terminal output of 
WINEDEBUG=+relay wine /home/william/.wine/drive_c/Program\

If the X server is crashing, then the problem lies with the X server and not
Wine. If you're using the NVIDIA proprietary driver version 185.x, then you
need to upgrade.

Don't be so quick Andrew, I asked the users complaining of this problem to
create a bug so we could identify where the problem lay.  I totally disregarded
it and haven't seen it myself but I've rejected several tests complaining of it
and its been brought up on the forums and mailing list a couple of times.  This
seems to be a real problem.

This is affecting Ubuntu 9.10/10.04 and SUSE users that I know of and only came
about with the new Steam update.  I'd like to rule out it isn't some Wine
window creation conflict with X before telling these guys we're not interested.

The bug can stay closed and invalid but if some one with the problem could
attach some appropriate data to show that Wine is not at fault it would be
handy.

I would suggest we want the output of your x.org log from the crashed session,
dmesg tail, and Wine run with X debug channels on.  Please also test with
nVidia drivers other than 185.x and report your results.

(In reply to comment #4)
The 185.x Nvidia drivers known to cause X-server crash. If that's what users
have - they should be reporting all issues to distro, considering the 195.x
drivers been out for a while.

Good, I can continue ignoring this complaint. :)

I have added a warning to the Steam page for users with this issue to upgrade
their drivers.

Thanks William and Andrew.
