WINE Intel
by MD.IMAM HOSSAIN 17 May '09

17 May '09

Dear WINE Developers, Good morning. A great journey to WINE's Direct3D support since the beginning of its life time. Now it is so mature that I can play big games like FIFA 2006-2009, Need For Speed ProStreet, Need For Speed Undercover, Hitman Blood Money and so many easily. It already has Shader Model 1, Shader Model 2, Shader Model 3 support. What is I am going to say is that all of the bits of 3D it has are only and fully supported on nVidia based graphics card due to their superior Linux driver. But nVidia is not alone in the graphics card building field. There are other manufacturer around them. Majority of the C.P.U comes up with the INTEL integrated graphics card. We all very well know that their Linux driver lack most of the modern 3D bits. But most of the user do not know about that. They just get frustrated with WINE. Some DirectX 7 games runs very well in nVidia graphics card but not in INTEL. Same thing is for some DirectX8, DirectX8.1. I do not know but I suspect that WINE's various Direct3D code utilizes OpenGL nVidia Extension or higher level OpenGL ARB Extension rather that lower one. That's why while INTEL OpenGL driver does support DirectX7, DirectX8 level 3D wine does not able to run many games on INTEL Linux graphics driver. While those many games run on nVidia Linux driver. I hope WINE will someday have better INTEL OpenGL support. Your sincerely, MD. IMAM HOSSAIN

Detecting an invalid handle in setupapi
by Paul Vriens 16 May '09

16 May '09

Hi, I'm trying to install Microsoft's MMC (W2K3) and it crashes every now and then with different symptoms. I've tracked it down to what I think is a fault in the application that triggers a bug in Wine. All inf files that are read are closed with SetupCloseInfFile but the app is still trying to use the handle in a call to SetupFindFirstLineA. On Windows (tested on W2K3) this will lead to a failure of SetupFindFirstLineA with a last error of ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE. On Wine we don't check the handle and thus the outcome cannot be predicted (mostly crash). What ways do we have to detect invalid handles or better yet how can this be solved? -- Cheers, Paul.

Error in a shader compilation
by Doffle Alain 16 May '09

16 May '09

Hi, I'm trying to get rid of an error I observe in a wine trace (cf. attachement). fixme:d3d_shader:print_glsl_info_log Error received from GLSL shader #32: "0(37) : error C1068: array index out of bounds\n" In my understanding, it comes from an incompatibility between the two lines : trace:d3d_shader:shader_vaddline GL HW (2, 13) : uniform vec4 VC[253]; and trace:d3d_shader:shader_vaddline GL HW (37, 1057) : gl_Position.zw = (VC[254].xy); Can you please give me some help/hint/advice about the correct way to solve this problem please ?

The patch adds trailing whitespeaces in a few lines. Please remove them. Otherwise the code looks good to me.

Re: wine-devel Digest, Vol 46, Issue 55
by Steve Dodier 15 May '09

15 May '09

Hello, If it's clear the distro list is quite messed, I think the distinction between Ubuntu Kubuntu and Xubuntu must be kept, because for install, Ubuntu ships with PulseAudio and Compiz by default, which cause a lot of problems, while Xubuntu is free of that and has its compositor shutdown by default. Another way to get rid of that would be to add a few checkboxes for the known problematic bits of the tests (ie. kind of GPU / Presence of Pulse/Compiz / use of winetricks), which would result in easier work for the bug triagers. Anyways, I don't want my post to be a "severity levels" 2, so let me know if you think there's interest in digging into this and i'll post on the forum. Cordially, SD. PS : this is the first time i post on this list. I'm merely an user, sometimes helping other ones on #winehq and in launchpad. I'm also the self-appointed part-time apprentice of the guru Scott Ritchie :p -- Steve Dodier OpenPGP : 0E5E4ECB IRC : SiDi on irc.freenode.net Jabber : sidi(a)im.apinc.org steve.dodier(a)gmail.com https://launchpad.net/~sidi

AppDB and Distributions
by André Hentschel 15 May '09

15 May '09

Hi, It's getting more and more strange in our AppDB. If a user is running Ubuntu 9.04, he has 14 options which distribution called Ubuntu 9.04 to choose. 14? There only should be two, the 32-Bit and the 64-Bit Version. If we don't stop that we get more and more chaos in our DB. So why this mess? I guess the users choose one and then see a way deeper some fields called "Distribution Name:" and "Distribution URL:", but they don't read the headline "New Distribution". Maybe we should do something like "IF (choosen distribution) THEN (dont allow to make new one)". Or maybe hide the "New Distribution"-Fields a bit more or make the "New" bigger. Beside clones like "Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty x86_64" and "Ubuntu 9.04 "Jaunty" x86_64 (+ variants like Kubuntu)" there are also old Alphas which should be removed, same thing for other Versions. see also Bug 17401 Thanks for reading Best regards André Hentschel
