Hi all,
Everybody at WineConf (myself included) seemed pretty happy about the idea to have Wine use Windows 7 mode by default. However, it looks like Steam does not accept the -no-cef-sandbox parameter in Windows Vista and later. This means that if we switch to Windows 7, most parts of Steam will crash.
I see a few options: 1. Ask the Steam developers to make -no-cef-sandbox work in all versions of Windows. 2. Tell users to switch to Windows XP mode before using Steam. 3. Commit some nasty hack to handle the syscall and continue normal processing.
This needs further discussion.
