I know some video drivers are so broken we don't want to run on them. I have an ATI Radeon Mobility 250. I thought this was a fairly common card. Is locking up the machine really acceptable here?
All we could do is blacklisting certain drivers or card IDs. If the system hard crashes or has a bluescreen it's a driver bug for sure. It is plainly impossible to make sure the tests do not crash anywhere, except by not having any tests at all.
I have never heard the name "ATI Radeon Mobility 250". It could be an ATI Radeon Mobility 9000, which has a rv250 chip in it. I have the same in my old laptop, the tests run without crashing(Some are failing due to clear driver bugs though, and I there aren't any newer laptop drivers available)
We now have a bug report for the same issue:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13608
From looking at the attached res/report file, it crashes at that same test. I'm not sure if this is the relevant info about his graphics card:
d3d9:visual start dlls/d3d9/tests/visual.c - visual.c:181:Driver string: "ati2dvag.dll" visual.c:182:Description string: "Radeon X1950 Series" visual.c:183:Device name string: "\.\DISPLAY1" visual.c:184:Driver version 6.14.10.6783
It appears that at least 2 users are bitten by this issue. Not something we want to happen I guess, but I have no clue how to fix this.
