Mandrake packages
by Mike Hearn 04 Jan '05

04 Jan '05

Hi, The downloads page advertises support for 10.1, 10.0 and 9.2 Mandrake packages but it seems only 10.1 RPMs are provided. Should the download page be updated to say only 10.1 is available? I'd rather actually it was built on an older Mandrake and then fixed to work on later versions too if that was necessary, as I suspect the only real difference is glibc symvers. thanks -mike

Re: Change some d3d9 RACE( "stub ") into FIXME ("stub")

Not to mention the users who will generate bug reports saying 'look it does not work because of this FIXME' whereas this FIXME is just for an obscure function which does not do anything important and can be let as a stub for ages.

Re: Native unix style paths in wine common dialogs

What would rule even more is if this was not a conditional compilation flag, but something that could be toggled at runtime. That way you can have a single Wine installation that has both half-native winelib apps and regular win32 binaries run at once. As it is, this patch is only really useful for when you are distributing your own app-specific copy of Wine, no? > Btw, if anyone is interested we also have another module which > can be used to convert the windows-style drive letters returned > by the common dialogs into unix-style paths (if you want to use > these paths will "normal" file i/o functions such as C++ stream i/o). Isn't that what wine_get_unix_file_name does? thanks -mike

Changed files to use interlocked functions
by Paul Vriens 04 Jan '05

04 Jan '05

Hi, the Janitorial page shows that the "Use Interlocked functions in AddRef and Release methods" project is finished. There are however several files (at least 135) that still use the non-interlocked method. Especially ddraw, d3*, dm*, avifil32 and some ole/oleaut32. Do they still need to be changed ? Cheers, Paul.

I swear I found this same error several months ago, but never submitted a patch (and can't find my old patch now). Your three patches solved the widl crash in current cvs for me. Alexandre, can you review / apply them? Thanks, Dan -- Trying to get a job as a c++ developer? See http://kegel.com/academy/getting-hired.html

Should we get rid of the wine-license list?
by Scott Ritchie 03 Jan '05

03 Jan '05

Looking at the archives it appears that wine-license has had very little traffic, to the point where a lot of it is probably not being read when it comes up, since people like me are not subscribed to that list. It seems like a lot of the stuff being sent there should instead go to wine-devel. Thoughts? Scott Ritchie

Hyperthreading and SMP
by Kenneth Porter 03 Jan '05

03 Jan '05

Does WINE have any problem with either Hyperthreading or SMP? I've found that locking the Tribes Vengeance dedicated server to a single logical CPU seems to give me better performance as the server fills with players. CPU usage seems significantly lower (45% versus 65%). Is this likely to be a WINE issue or a TV issue? (TV is based on the Unreal Tournament engine, with the Havok physics engine integrated to handle vehicle. Alas, unlike UT2004, there's no native Linux server for TV.) More here: <http://lists.matureasskickers.net/pipermail/tvservers/2004-December/000186.…> I want to try disabling HT or setting affinity on my co-admin's Win2003 server to see if he sees the same boost.
