Hello All,
Lately I've been trying to track down a problem that prevents DVD Shrink 3.2 from starting on FreeBSD in any version of Wine built on/after 04-20-2005 (including the recent beta releases). Any version built prior to this works fine.
I've tracked the problem down to the changes made to x11drv/dib.c (and associated) on 04-20-2005. I'm not fluent in C; I merely found the problem through trial and error.
If I copy the x11drv/dib.c (and ntdll/, so the old dib.c will work) from 04-18-2005 in place of the one introduced on the 20th, the problem disappears and DVD Shrink fires right up. Changing dib.c (and dib.c only) back to the 20th snapshot re-introduces the problem, and DVD Shrink hangs again.
As I don't understand the code, I don't know how to detect where the problem really lies, as the dib.c changes may only be indirectly responsible. I am very willing to test for or aid anyone who wouldn't mind helping with this problem, however.
I have already contacted the author of the changes (dib.c and associated) and he suggested I try this list. If anyone would like to glance at the differences between the two files I've mentioned above, I have posted a diff here:

--- are the old and working changes +++ are the new and broken changes
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
