Hi,
there are some processor specific environment variables:
NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=1 PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=x86 PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER=x86 Family 6 Model 9 Stepping 8, GenuineIntel PROCESSOR_LEVEL=6 PROCESSOR_REVISION=0908
(from a VMware box).
These variables exist in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet \Control\Session Manager\Environment.
Psinfo.exe (from SysInternals) uses these env-variables to produce some information.
When I remove the entries and reboot the box they are auto-generated again.
My question is where to put the generation of these variables? We most likely want this with some defaults in wine.inf. Furthermore GetSystemInfo() could be changed, but that seems cheating.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Paul.

dlls/kernel/cpu.c does stuff like that, for instance.

Yeah, that's where GetSystemInfo resides :-). GetSystemInfo however doesn't generate the mentioned keys.
Would it be acceptable to put some sane defaults in wine.inf and have GetSystemInfo check and fill the correct keys in the registry? Or do we need a way to fill these keys at every boot of the system (start of wineserver)?

We can either put defaults in wine.inf, or if that's not good enough compute the proper values at run-time. It doesn't really make sense to do both.
