winedbg

[Dimitrie O. Paun]

Hi folks,

Even though I never use a debugger, I had winedbg startup 
automatically a few times, and I noticed that I get no text
in the console. Actually, I do (as I can select it and copy it),
but it doesn't get rendered. I tried changing the font, but the
only option I get is "Courier New". Tried different size, but 
nothing helped. Strange thing is that the sample 
  "This is a test"
in the font selection tab works just fine.

Any tips for fixing this are highly appreciated.

can you send me a -debugmsg +wineconsole,+wc_font trace TIA
(i assume running programs/winedbg/winedbg or programs/wcmd/wcmd 
gives the same result)

Sure, I run it like this:

[dimi@dimi wine.src]$ ../wine/programs/winedbg/winedbg --debugmsg +wineconsole,+wc_font 2> diffs/winedbg.trace

and then typed 'quit'. Trace attached.

Yes, that's correct.

set a much smaller screen-buffer
120,3000 will create a way too big screenbuffer (i mean the bitmap to
render it)
(as of today, the full sb is stored in a unique bitmap... and here the
bmp allocation fails)

Thanks, that works.

That's a bit of a problem, isn't it... :)

Look at the [Software\Wine\WineDbg] section in ~/.wine/system.reg.
With "ConChannelMask"=dword:00000001 output should to the wineconsole.

Bye

I do not have such an entry in system.reg. Is it required? I've tried
to add it, didn't make a difference. Do you mind sending your exact
[Software\Wine\WineDbg] section?
