Make Wine and the tests dpi aware
by Detlef Riekenberg 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

Wine use some fixed values for calculating gui elements, and hopefully the current values are verified with tests. The tests works in Windows, but only with the default settings: 96 dpi ("Small Fonts" / "Kleine Schriften") and the default theme. It would be a good idea to run the tests also for different settings. A first step should be using 120 dpi (Large Fonts) on Windows, and fix the tests and our Implementation. (comctrl32 has lot's of issues). For Patchwatcher, it should be possible to require selectable tests to run on more than one Machine with different settings. That way patchwatcher can detect 96dpi vs. 120dpi problems. Other possible testing improvement include color-depth and screen size issues. -- By by ... Detlef

iTunes wine 1.1.8
by Adam Brown 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

Hi all, I am having a little trouble with iTunes 8 in Wine 1.1.8. Everything works great except that I cannot enter the store to buy music; it crashes. Do I have to adjust a setting or install gecko maybe? Older versions of iTunes I have tried have the same problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you know of an application that needs this? Or can you write a conformance test that shows how Windows behaves in this situation? http://www.uninformed.org/?v=6&a=3&t=txt seems to imply it's not needed? - Dan

RE: Patch for WineD3D to set Driver an Description
by Stefan Dösinger 12 Nov '08

> PS: For Fallout 3 those registry settings should be (or similar): > "VideoDescription"="NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT" > "VideoDriver"="nv4_disp.dll" We have a display driver database in wined3d that specifies the driver version to report. We could include this information there instead adding a new registry key. "nv4_disp.dll" obviously makes problems. Our display driver is called "winex11.drv", or arguably for d3d "wined3d.dll"

Re: Patch for WineD3D to set Driver an Description

Perhaps the patch should enter Wine. I will do the full restructuring later. One thing which you should do is to set the strings to NULL in the wined3d_settings structure at the start of the file (line 37). Also put the new options right after the video memory one or even before for clarity.
