Strange bash error "shell-init: error retrieving current directory"
by Dan Kegel 06 Jan '08

06 Jan '08

I've been seeing the error shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory a lot recently when running Wine, probably when installers finish. It started a couple weeks ago. I think it's a bash error message. Anyone else seeing that, or know what causes it? (Do we run our wrapper script in a directory that goes away, say?)

Re: [PATCH] ntdll: remove bogus VALGRIND_DISCARD

The valgrind manual tells us in the Client Requests section that VALGRIND_MAKE_xxx functions return such a block handle [1], But looking at the implementation of valgrind/adding traces to valgind DISCARD request show it returns 0xffffffff ? Greetings Peter [1] valgrind manual Release 3.3.0 - 4.6. Client Requests * VALGRIND_MAKE_MEM_NOACCESS, VALGRIND_MAKE_MEM_UNDEFINED and VALGRIND_MAKE_MEM_DE These mark address ranges as completely inaccessible, accessible but containing undeﬁned data, and accessible and containing deﬁned data, respectively. Subsequent errors may have their faulting addresses described in terms of these blocks. _Returns a "block handle"_. Returns zero when not run on Valgrind. * VALGRIND_MAKE_MEM_DEFINED_IF_ADDRESSABLE. This is just like VALGRIND_MAKE_MEM_DEFINED but only affects those bytes that are already addressable. * VALGRIND_DISCARD: At some point you may want Valgrind to stop reporting errors in terms of the blocks deﬁned by the previous three macros. To do this, the above macros return a small-integer "block handle". You can pass this block handle to VALGRIND_DISCARD. After doing so, Valgrind will no longer be able to relate addressing errors to the user-deﬁned block associated with the handle. The permissions settings associated with the handle remain in place; this just affects how errors are reported, not whether they are reported. Returns 1 for an invalid handle and 0 for a valid handle (although passing invalid handles is harmless). Always returns 0 when not run on Valgrind.

Re: comdlg32: 1/2 PageSetupDlg: Convert paint procs to Unicode

It improves nothing IMO except of making the code less readable, making it not thread safe, calling CallWindowProcW where it shouldn't. -- Dmitry.

Then it of course is a good thing if we implement our own d3dx.

Gates of Skeldal - d3d problem ?
by Pavel Troller 05 Jan '08

05 Jan '08

Hi! A classic Czech RPG game, Gates of Skeldal, has been released for free download. I've tried the game for my children, but it seems to have a problem in wine. Installation is perfect. Running the game basically works, intro video plays well, but then the problem occurs. Starting the game causes that every mouse move or other activity quickly swaps forth and back the correct window contents with a previous one, which should not be displayed anymore (like the in-game window and main menu window). Not all the window is always swapped, sometimes just some areas flash forth/back. To be even worse, the mouse pointer is not properly erased, so the window begins filled with its traces. After a while, the window is totally garbled and playing is impossible. Synchronously with this problem, the wine console starts to be flooded with the following message: fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd58/0x33fd48 fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd38/0x33fd28 fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd4c/0x33fd3c fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd7c/0x33fd6c fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd80/0x33fd70 fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd38/0x33fd28 fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd4c/0x33fd3c fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd7c/0x33fd6c fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd38/0x33fd28 fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd4c/0x33fd3c fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd7c/0x33fd6c fixme:d3d:IWineD3DSwapChainImpl_Present Unhandled present options 0x33fd38/0x33fd28 Is it possible that this fixme refers to the real cause or the problem, or are these messages just harmless, not related to the problem ? Tested on a today's git. The game can be freely downloaded (cca 188 MB) there (it is in Czech, but the menu is easy and anybody can find how to control the game): http://www.napoleongames.cz/download/brany_skeldalu_setup.exe With regards, Pavel Troller
