Not a problem here. Thanks to Vijay, I can keep my kernels with his individual

about now is, how to make this information more publicly available, to help
the others to find the patches. Do you think that this mailing list is enough ?


 
 And hopefully more feedback than on wine-devel ...

Of course...

Hi!
  It would be very good! I'm voting even for including the 2.6.36 version into
the next .36 patch (probably .36.3).
  I can contact Pavel Machek, which has a lot of drivers in the kernel, but
if anybody here could push it to the sources directly, it would be better.

Regards, Pavel

 Hi All,
 
 Can anyone tell me how to get that into the mainline kernel ASAP.
 Or Anyone can send it on my behalf to lkml list to get it into main line
 
 Thanks,
 Vijay

Wine and serial port AGAIN

2010-12-16 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  As a technician, I need often to use some form of serial port communication.
  My recent experience is with a program for programming TYT radios from China.
They supply a simple windows app, which allows to program all the features of
the radio, which cannot be accomplished using the radio keyboard only.
  The program works perfectly in wine, with one exception - a physical comms
with the radio. It complains that it doesn't receive a response from the radio,
while the radio crashes - it stops working, when a programming attempt is made,
and has to be power-cycled.
  The radio is connected using a USB cable, which contains just a regular 
PL-2303 USB to serial converter, which is perfectly supported in Linux. 
Port assignment for wine is also done, proof of which is, that the radio 
crashes upon the programming request. The data volume to be programmed is
small, just a few hundreds of bytes. It's really stupid that I can prepare my
data in the program only, and then I need to ask my colleague with real windows
to perform a programming job :-(.
  The program can be freely downloaded from the TYT pages:
  http://www.tyt888.com/WebEditor/UploadFile/201096144939483.rar
  but a real radio is needed to debug the comms problem. I've captured the
console output with WINEDEBUG=+comm, which is attached. It contains a log of
three consecutive attempts to program the radio. I'm ready to do more debugging,
but I don't know, how to proceed now.
  With regards, Pavel.

  Sounds like a new bug in wined3d. Try older Wine version(s) (wine-1.1.28 
  ish).
 
 Yeah, if the game uses ddraw it's probably the same issue as
 http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21025.

Hi!
  But the bug, together with other similar ones, has been closed as fixed in
1.1.36, while this bug is still here. I cannot test the game with wine-1.1.34,
because it crashes and ends up in wine debugger. So it will be probably another

Mockba to Berlin game - mouse not clicking

2010-01-21 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  My son bought a game DVD bound to a youngster's magazine. It contains
a 5 years old game by Monte Cristo Multimedia, called Mockba to Berlin.
  We were trying this game with wine 1.1.36. The game PERFECTLY installs and
then PERFECTLY launches, going through all the initial screens and videos.
It then renders a primary menu on the screen, allowing to start a new game,
load a save, perform some settings, etc. The mouse cursor is fully functional,
the hovered item gets brightened and an explanatory text appears, which
tells, what the particular item is for. BUT: The mouse buttons are DEAD. All.
I cannot left-click, right-click, mid-click, simply nothing. It' very
frustrating, it looks that just ONE CLICK remains to start the game, but
you can't do it!
  There is no console output related to the problem, just some warnings from
the GL renederer, which seem harmless.
  There is no AppDB entry for this game (we didn't found any), so we cannot
follow any hints, how to solve the problem.
  The game was tested on 3 different machines but with the same wine
installation. The results were identical.
  Are there any general tips, what we can try to solve the problem ?

With regards, Pavel

 Is that a GCC bug then?  And, more importantly, was that with a recent
 GCC version?
 
Hi!
 It cannot be clearly said. Some nuances of the C language are implementation
dependent and it's perfectly OK to compile them differently with or without
optimization. Sometimes the programmer incorrectly relies on such a nuance and
then using the different set of options can cause his program to behave
incorrectly. However, yes, there were, and maybe still are, GCC bugs regarding
optimisation, but in recent versions they are very rare.
  And my experiences mentioned above don't count only for wine, there are many
other programs, which do this.

US-ASCII should be enough for them :-).
  2) Switching to utf-8 caused that chinese characters and placeholders
(boxes with hex value of the character) were displayed instead of question
marks, and it didn't work either, of course.
 
 Please file a bug and attach a +winebrowser trace.

Done. There are two traces, one with default setting and the other with
LC_ALL=cs_CZ.UTF-8.

 If you can come up with a simple way for others to reproduce
 the problem, that might help, too.
 
Hi!
  I have a very good news today! I tested the current wine git and I've found
that it works again in the case of a device mentioned above! It's really good,
because it didn't work in 0.9.61 and using 0.9.40 was not good because of
another problems in this version. Even better, I've also found that today's
wine fixes the last graphics glitches remaining in the program GUI, so now
it works PERFECTLY under wine, and it seems that reading/writing the device
over the serial port is even FASTER than from windows! 
  I will try another devices soon, to help to debug serial port problems
as much as possible!

 Wonderful! Can you add this information to the AppDB?
 
To which app ? My one is a very special program, working just with a special
telecom device. It's not available publicly anywhere. It doesn't have any entry
in AppDB, it would be useless.
  I will add remarks to other apps, which I will verify later (i.e. MapSource

Re: Serial port support in wine-1.0: What to do to make it working ?

2008-05-06 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi Uwe,

 Pavel,
 
 perhaps compile wine yourself and instrument the serial code with debugging
 output. Try to see what's going wrong. Look at the codes where this happens
 and read the old changelogs, where somebody fiddled witrh the code. Ask
 about what people thought (or smoked) when implementing or offer a better
 implementation.

OK, will do. I'm always compiling wine from source, so I will try to dig into
the driver and search for the bugs there. One of the cases is I think simple,
the device uses normal ASCII protocol and I can talk to it using kermit or
minicom, but the windows program intended to control it simply stucks on the
first command and never gets a reply. I think there is a good place to start.

 
 There is a big problem with those special devices, as only few if any wine
 developpers have it...

Yes, I know. I hope that there is just a limited number of bugs, but they
affect many such devices, so it looks that the driver is totally broken.

Serial port support in wine-1.0: What to do to make it working ?

2008-05-05 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I have really BIG problems running any application, which needs to comm over
a serial port:
  - My ham TCVR
  - My GPS
  - My multimeter
  - A lot of my mobiles
  - A lot of devices used in my work (special telco equipment, comms varying
from simple AT-style commands up to complex proprietary binary protocols).
  In all the cases there are very similar problems - either the program doesn't
detect the device properly, or the device doesn't respond, or in some cases
the device does, what the program wants, but it then can't read it back.
  It looks that some archaic wine versions are better, for example I have to
use wine-0.9.40 to communicate with a device in my work (simple text-based
command-reply communication), any wine newer than say 0.9.50 doesn't work, the
communication times out.
  Because I'm a telco engineer and serial comm is my daily work, and there are
only windows versions of many tools I have to use, proper and mature serial
port support is essential for me.
  So, what can I do to help fixing these problems ? Should I open a bug for
every such a program ? Or just open one bug and state all the programs there ?
I think that bugzilla contains a lot of bugs related to serial port; is it
good to add a new ones ? 
  I'm afraid I can't bisect a problem between 0.9.40 and current wine, but I
can make a serial trace for both of them and look at the difference. Would it
help to find at least this one particular problem ? Or what more can I do
to make the serial port working ? I can code in C in the Linux environment, but
I know NOTHING about windows...

Problem with VoIP applications

2008-05-02 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I was trying to run FreeCall VoIP client, however, it detects a problem
and tries to contact its authors. I've done a bit of googling and I've found
that there are at least 3 similar programs (FreeCall, VoipCheap, VoipDiscount)
which behave exactly the same way, they are using probably the same client.
Also AppDb lists at least one of them, with identical symptoms. 
  There is the following report generated by wine:

Unimplemented ntoskrnl functions ?

Hi!
  I'm solving the following problem:
  I would like to run the Tibbo Device Server Toolkit (TDSK) - see

ntoskrnl.exe.KeInitializeEvent, aborting

Unhandled exception: unimplemented function ntoskrnl.exe.KeInitializeEvent 
called in 32-bit code (0x7b841796).

  Is this function hard to implement ? I'm somewhat experienced with Linux

 Hi, Pavel!
 
 You are trying to run the Windows device driver (a virtual port 
 redirector) included with the application.

Oh, I see. I actually don't want to use the device driver (Virtual Serial
Port - VSP), there is a native Linux driver for it. What I need, is to
manage the Tibbo devices, and this functionality is not available for Linux
and probably will never be.

 
 Wine does not really support Windows drivers - although some may load the 
 functionality just isn't there. The application may run on a COM port 
 supported by the operating system (Linux, etc.)

The problem probably is, that the Device Server utilizes the underlying devices
for its operation, so it cannot be used without them. It uses some out of band
channels to communicate with Tibbos - for example, even if the IP address of
the device is lost/spontaneously changed, it can find it using special
broadcasts, show its current config, and change it (without losing this
service connection). I was hoping that maybe it will work independently of the
device driver, but it probably won't.

 
 The installation failure is what you should aim to fix. A winedevice crash 
 should not stop the installation.
 
 Regards,
 
 Paul Chitescu
 
Thank you for your valuable help! It looks that these devices are not for me
:-(.

Can't determine disk space, install fails

2008-03-26 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  We have a long-persisting problem there. It persists for many wine versions
and prevents some programs from installing.
  As an example, today my son complained about impossibility to install WoW.
The installer was not able to determine the free space on the disk (there was
a dash instead of a number in the box) and the Continue button was greyed out,
so it was not possible to proceed.
  There are other cases, in which the installers say that there is not enough
space on the disk and fail. Of course there is enough space, but the installer
is not able to find it.
  Especially WoW has Gold rating and these problems are not mentioned, so I
don't think that this is a common wine problem, thus I'm not going to open
a bug for it. I'm begging for a hint instead, what to try to find the cause
of the problem.
  Wine is always manually compiled and it runs on a generic Linux system,
not on any particular, publicly known distro.

Re: Can't determine disk space, install fails

2008-03-26 Thread Pavel Troller
Ahoj Vito / Hi Vit,
  many thanks for your valuable help! In our case, it depends on the
partition size, not on the free space remaining. We've found that on every
partition bigger than 64G, the installation fails.
  Now we are performing an experimental installation in /var/tmp, where /var
has only 15G in our case, and it works like a charm.
  What debugging options could we set to collect symptoms of the problem ?
  With regards,
 Pavel Troller
  
 Hi Pavel,
 I've ran into similar issues when, for example, I've got more than 64GB 
 free space on the partition, and the old Win installers just told me 
 there was -1 bytes free. I'd vote for some Wine (or 3rd party tool) 
 functionality that would decrease the reported bytes available per 
 user's request.
 
 As a temporary solution for such problems, I've used a small partition 
 for installation with just 2GBs free and it worked for me. I've then 
 moved the wineprefix into the target partition.
 Regards
 Vit Hrachovy

Hi!
  Here, in Czech Republic, there is also a new law forbidding to circumvent
the copy protection, it probably comes from the same european source as the
German one.
  However, using cracks to make the app running on wine can't be primarily
classified as circumventing copy protection, but as modifying an app to
run on other OS, which is, I hope, still legal. I think that if I own a legal
copy of an application, didn't make any illegal copies of it, and just
modified it to run in wine, any court on the world should decide, that my
intention was not to circumvent the copy protection (because it is not of
any importance to me, I already legally have it), but to make it working
(yes, I've spent my money to use the app and I had to modify it to be able to
use it). Our courts have to evidence my invention to make a punishable act
(like to circumvent the copy protection to either get a pirated copy or to
sell my pirated copies to anybody else), but if I did something similar, but
for evidently another purpose (to run the legally owned app), I think that
it's not a punishable act. Something similar happened recently - a court
set free an old woman which was growing marihuana strictly for medical purpose,
even if there is a law strictly prohibiting to grow marihuana at all. Of course
IANAL, but my kids are running cracked games on wine, however we HAVE all the

 This is done since quite some time. apps are usually called iexplore.exe,

 If you still see wine, wineloader or something similar you have a very

Hi!
  BTW I don't like this feature and I would prefer at least a commandline 
switch, or maybe a registry key, to prevent it.
  Why ?
  Because wine (and windows apps) sometimes crash and remain running, doing
nothing useful but eating CPU/memory, and not being able to be killed easily
(even killing the window doesn't close the app reliably). For this case, it's
most easy to execute killall -KILL some static name like wine/wine-pthread
instead of doing ps axufw, searching for the name of the app and then killing
it. I had a single-liner script called kw (kill wine) and doing exactly the
above command, and a beutifull bomb icon calling it. Now I can't se it - even
killing wineserver sometimes doesn't help.

 When you cat the file, kernel recognizes it as that such an app is taking

 it`s looks a little bit too simple for me. triggering a reboot just by some 
 simple open() and read() and close() ?
 let`s wait what the maintainer has to tell.

OK, Roland, but it's Linux :-). Isn't rm -rf / a simple command ? Yes, it is

wininet: InternetAttemptConnect() Stub

2007-11-19 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I have a problem running an offline client for ordering photo prints from
digital cameras.
  Even it is an offline client, it requires the computer to be online.
  It seems that in wine, it feels to be offline, thus refusing further
operation with a dialog saying something like Internet connection unavailable
and terminating. The machine is normally connected to the LAN with full net
availability.
  The following is its full console log.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/droxi/OfflineClient$ wine 
PhotoOfflineClient.exe
fixme:wininet:InternetGetConnectedState always returning LAN connection.

fixme:win:LockWindowUpdate ((nil)), partial stub!
fixme:shdocvw:OleObject_Close (0x199510)-(1)
fixme:wininet:InternetAttemptConnect Stub

  I see two network related fixmes - the first one is very frequent but it
seems harmless, many programs are able to use the net even they issue such
a message. However, the second fixme looks more interesting, it looks like
that the program tries to activate the internet connection, which is of
course just a stub. Why is it doing so, I don't know.
  Is this information enough to find a problem (and maybe its fix) or is
more debugging needed ? What else to try ?

 I don't think either wininet fixme is telling you anything worthwhile.
  As you already pointed out, the first one seems okay:  a LAN

 you look at the source, returns ERROR_SUCCESS, which is what MSDN says
 it should return if it succeeds.
 
 I think you're going to have to try a +relay log and scanning through
 it ti figure out why it thinks it's offline.

Just for your info, you're right, I was not carefull enough to verify what's
happening and started writing too soon. The program is communicating happily
with a lot of servers, downloads a plenty of files... and then it writes that
the connection doesn't work. It seems that either it gets something wrong
from one of the servers, or it crashes for another reason and the message
is disinformative. I've captured its net activities by Wireshark and we are
going to compare them with the log gathered when it runs on windows.

Re: Unimplemented function KERNEL32.dll.FindFirstVolumeW

 i`ve tracked this down to a watchdog issue.

 i`ve contacted the maintainer of the watchdog subsystem.
 
 looks like a bug to me.
 
 thanks

Hi!
  I think it's not a bug, it's a normal behaviour.
  The kernel watchdog is normally not active when the machine is booted,
waiting for an user-space daemon to start handling of /dev/watchdog file
(opening it and manipulating it from time to time to show that it's still
alive). When you cat the file, kernel recognizes it as that such an app
is taking over control of the watchdog and starts it. However, because
cat closes the file immediately, it is not handled anymore and kernel
recognizes it as a userspace problem, thus rebooting the machine after
the timeout expires.

Installer already running

2007-05-07 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I was trying to install the Joint Task Force game, which was packaged as
a bonus with my new graphics card. The game itself seems to install well
using the standard InstallShield, but then it tries to install a PhysX
driver/library, which is necessary to run it. The PhysX package is provided
as a single executable on the CD. When the executable (called
PhysX_2.5.1_SystemSoftware.exe) is run by wine, it immediately pops a dialog
saying The installer is already running and pressing its OK button
terminates the installation. The game then complains that the PhysX driver
is not installed and requires reinstallation (for anybody who would like to
try this too, the game itself has to be patched by nocd crack first, otherwise
it chokes on SECDRV.SYS).
  The dialog appears not only when the PhysX installer is launched from the
game installer, but also when the executable is run directly from the
command line.
  Intuitively I was trying to discover more about it by running wine with
WINEDEBUG=+file, and it has shown that the installer created some files in
c:\windows\temp first, then it played with explorer.exe (tried to run it ?),
there was a search for a lot of fonts, libs etc., win.ini was consulted several
times, and the dialog then appeared. Possibly all the stuff starting with
explorer.exe was there to display the dialog box ? After accepting the box,
it just deleted the stuff in the temp directory and terminated.
  I didn't find anything related to this in bugzilla. 
  I would like to find the real cause of the problem, but I don't know exactly,
how to proceed. Any hints ?
  It's the current git wine, but the same is observed on 0.9.33 or so.

  With regards, Pavel Troller

Dear Vitaliy,
  I'm very sorry for my total stupidity, ignorance and maybe even debility,
but I can't find nothing common between Bug# 219 and my question.
  The PhysX installer doesn't check for any *ICE components present in the
system, doesn't output any strings to wine console, which are described in
the bug desc, and the message The installer is already running, which is
typical for my problem, is not mentioned in the bug description at all.
  So please be patient with me and explain me in the deeper detail, why are
you thinking that I'm asking for #219.

 I'm not so sure why are you reporting a long long long known problem
 with Safedisk here, on the mailing list? See the bug 219 and add your
 comments there.

 I agree, this is not an issue with Copy Protection, this is an issue
 where the installer thinks that the installer is already running.
 
 A couple of questions
 
 -Have you tried running the PhysX installer manually, after the game
 is installed?
Yes. It's stated in my original mail. The results are identical.

 -Have you tried running wineboot to make sure any run entries are
 cleared and then running the PhysX installer manually?
No, because the game installer neither didn't warn me that the windows will
reboot, nor asked me to do it manually. And I tried to install the PhysX 
driver on another machine, independently on the previous attempts on the
first one, and it also did exactly the same.

 -Any idea what brand of installer it is (InstallShield, MSI, WISE, or
 some other)?  If you aren't sure, I can always take a look at the
 installer, if you will bzip and send to me (less than 10mb).

The package is provided as a single executable file. It doesn't identify
itself, it just pops up the dialog that it's already running. The only
trace is the window title, which says AGEIA PhysX V2.5.1 Setup. I think
that it's something special, not a classic brands of installers.

I will send you the file privately.

Re: Current wine and HL2 family - well done!

2007-03-05 Thread Pavel Troller
 Hi
 
We just tried it and we can't reproduce your problem. We were even going
  in the water itself and the display was smooth and without any distortion.
  We set the DX9 mode in the game command line (parameter -dxlevel 90).
 
 To say even more - with this new version all the random buffers that were 
 displayed are finaly gone, so there's no more strange looking side effects on 
 this map (especially at the bomb spot over at the ramp near the watter).
 
 I've also made a test using UseGLSL=enabled, and the water looks perfect, 
 tho the barrels seem overly shiny - same goes for the weapons the player is 
 holding. I think there may be a texture stage missisng, tho everything else 
 seems almost perfect (and with 16xAA looks amazingly well, with not much of a 
 speed impact at 800x600).
 
Hi!
  I've made also the glsl test. The same problem is here - there is too much
shine all over the game. Not only barrels and weapons, but also faces, dresses,
walls.. It looks like covered by the oil film. There are also some strange
shadow effects - like that the top of the hand is dark and the bottom is bright,
like if the light would come from the ground. And all this is of course much
slower, doing about 8 - 10 fps on 1024x768. 
  But yes, the water is really perfect.
  So we turned glsl off again, it seems that it really still needs some work.

  Normally I'm writing complaints here, so for a bit of compensation, I would
like to inform that yesterday's wine runs HL2 family of games for the first
time without an annoying graphics glitch causing parts of skies to be
replaced with some bogus contents like white, black, mirrors of a part of
ground etc.
  So, many thanks to all the DirectX developers especially from my sons, they
are very pleased and wish you all the best, especially continuous progress
in wine development (a bit egocentric from them, but nice :-)) ).

 Are you finding no errors at all?  In Counter-Strike:

 the map de_aztec, the screen is often completely
 black - it appears to be when looking at water.

Hi!
  Because I had to restore working wine, I did the following:
  1) Restored original files
  2) Pulled today's version
  3) Compiled and verified
  ... Fallout tactics still didn't start with the obvious symptoms.
  So I commented out the SetWindowPos() call in ..._SetupFullscreenWindow (on
lines 12512 of the today's source) and... voilla, the game starts and runs
perfectly. My son has verified it and didn't find any problems.
  Then he tried HL2 and it seems also fully functional.
  So... The bug is still there, but my workaround fixes it for me and I didn't
find any drawbacks (trying a lot of programs I'm using like IDA and some
special telco programs).
  Because I didn't read anything from Stefan for a while, I'll wait a bit more
and then I'll create a bugzilla record for it.
  Is it ok ?

 This here seems strange. If you compare that to the good log you'll see that 
 IWineD3DDeviceImpl_Init3D was left way to early. As there is no ERR about a 
 possible reason for the abortion I think that somewhere an exception is 
 thrown, caught by the game which terminates afterwards.
Doesn't seem so. See below.
 
 You can do the following:
 - Run the game in winedbg and see if it catches the execption and gives a 
 backtrace and crash position
There is no such exception, at least winedbg doesn't catch any. Is a special
action (command etc.) 
 - Add some extra traces(or ERRs) to Init3D and its subfunctions to catch the 
 last line that is exectuted successfully.
Hmm... I added some traces to device.c. We know that last known trace from
Init3D in the bad case is Creating implicit swapchain.
I added a new trace here:

/* Setup the implicit swapchain */
TRACE(Creating implicit swapchain\n);
if (D3D_OK != D3DCB_CreateAdditionalSwapChain((IUnknown *) This-parent, 
pPresentationParameters, (IWineD3DSwapChain **)swapchain) || swapchain == 
NULL) {
WARN(Failed to create implicit swapchain\n);
return WINED3DERR_INVALIDCALL;
}
TRACE(1674\n);

(it's on line 1674) and this one was NOT reached.
I'm a bit confusd because I failed to find the code for
D3DCB_CreateAdditionalSwapChain(), I found only its call in device.c and its
definition in wined3d_interface.h.
  So, what to do next ?

Hi!
  I've tried 0.9.31 and it seems that there is a regression in at least two
games:

C:\dev\phoenix\display\win32\win32_window.cpp(873): **fatal error**:

Moving the cursor causes sound effects as it hovers across the menus and
buttons, so the program runs, but nothing can be seen.
  Both those games are known to work with wine at about a half between .29

  I tried it with basic .31 as well as with today's git update.
  Are those regressions known and is it a work in progress, or should I make

  There were many files added in various directories (system32, windows, even

it in the web browser and it displayed a page saying that my comp is full of

 Are you using SeLinux or some other patches?  If so, please try building 
 your kernel from the vanilla Linux kernel.org sources.
 
Hi Mike!
  I take you very seriously, I know that you are a real wine guru, but I know
that those messages are not related to the segfaulting problem.

  1) These messages appear only on a x86_64 architecture. On i386 the crash
is the same but the messages are not there.
  2) There are other apps, which work perfectly, although they emit the same
messages.
  3) I'm using exec-shield patch, but I can disable it (for sure, tested by
the pax testing suite) using a procfs entry. Even with exec-shield disabled
the crash is still there, and in 2.6.17, even with exec-shield enabled, there
is no crash.

Re: Executing wine over make segfaults.

2006-11-06 Thread Pavel Troller
 
 this is what i did - and also suggest quite some time ago him(?)/list. i
 had the same problem since .16 kernels (unstable(~) gentoo-source
 ebuild).  since that change everything works fine (.18 now).
 
Hi!
  Yes, you did, and you did correctly. I just rebooted the x86_64 machine
with noexec=off. The app runs with no problems.
  Does it mean that something changed in noexec between .17 and .18 ? Why
wine worked well with noexec and 2.6.17 ?
  But it's really wrong: I don't want to compromise my security because of
running wine. Is there a chance to fix this in wine, for example by ordering
executability for every memory allocation ?

Re: Executing wine over make segfaults.

2006-11-05 Thread Pavel Troller
   This seems to be Wine-related problem (but not neccessary Wine bug) 
 because 
 everything else works fine with 2.6.18.1 kernel; I'm not alone who have 
 strange problems with Wine under 2.6.18 kernel.

  No, you are not. I've posted a very similar problem with wine  2.6.18
a couple of weeks ago.
  Just to recall, my experiences with the problem:
  1) Not every windows app causes wine to segfault. There are fairly complex,
 networked apps, which work flawlessly (DC++), other ones, much more
 simple, cause wine to crash, like wine's itself rundll.exe setupapi.dll
 when it tries to create a fresh .wine directory. Please see my post to
 wine-devel dated Oct 11, with subject wine segfaulting for details.
 There is even a strace snippet.
  2) It crashes almost identically on both i386 and x86_64 architectures, with
 the same applications.
  3) As demonstrated in 1), it does so even in the .wine directory build
 process, which means that no DLL overrides or other user-broken things
 can be involved.
  4) No user/system settings can change this. Tried to increase various
 ulimits, manipulate (disable) exec-shield etc. Just the only solution
 known to me is to boot 2.6.17 or less, which I cannot normally because
 of other features I currently need from 2.6.18.
  5) I'm testing wine on the system it was built on (with 2.6.18). It should
 ensure maximum compatibility with its kernel (I'm using live kernel
 includes for linux/* and asm/*). However, it works when transferred
 to another system running 2.6.17.
  I'm ready to perform some debugging; however, currently I don't know where
to start.

 With 2.6.17 everything works fine.
I'm running kernels 2.6.16 - 2.6.18. Yes, the failing machine runs 2.6.18.
It seems to be a really hot trace!
Just now I cannot make test, because I'm not locally on the failing machine.
Will try it ASAP.
 
 I found some reports on the net having similar problems with 2.6.18. It 
 looks like a memory layout issue.

The kernel is patched with exec-shield, but wine works perfectly with it on

 Is there a ulimit set? (ulimit -a) But I think we solved this specific

All the machines have identical ulimit. Increasing values on the failing one
doesn't help.
 
 I also setted /proc/sys/vm/legacy_va_layout to 0|1. But no effect.
I did the same, also with no effect. I also tried to disable exec-shield, to be

wine segfaulting

2006-10-10 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I have a problem running wine on one of my machines. It's the same binary
copy which I've compiled and which successfully runs on another ones.
  The problem is that many apps, which run on other machines, cause wine to
segfault here. The first one doing so is rundll.exe setupapi.dll...,
invoked during wineprefixcreate process, so there is even a problem creating
a fresh .wine directory.
  Simple apps, like winecfg and notepad, run well. Other ones don't. For
some of them, wine dumps a lot of warnings before the segfault, but exactly
the same warnings are emitted on another machines, where the app runs well.
When the app fails, it even doesn't start to render its window. However, when
a virtual desktop is to be used, it appears but it's still empty in the
moment of the fault.
  I was trying to get a backtrace by generating a core file and then examining
it with gdb. However, it always complains about the fact that the core was
created by another binary being run, and reports the name of the windows
executable, not anything like wine-*thread, which run the app. An attempt of
dumping the bt ends up with many hundreds of illegal entries, mostly zeroes,
some 0xs and other junk, and the bt is ended by an inaccessible memory
somewhere at 0x7FFE.
  Basic software (kernel, glibc, X11...) is very similar on all of the
machines, and of recent dates.
  I've also used strace and examined it. It looks that the segfault comes to
2 threads simultaneously. Immediately before there are some mprotect() calls
and mmap2(), which is successfull. The fault appears somewhere at 61k'th line,
so the app did a bunch of things before the crash:
  Now I'm lost. Can anybody help me, what to try next to find the cause and
solve the problem ? Many thanks in advance!

wine and serial port - again

2006-06-28 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  From time to time, complaints can be heard about functionality of the
serial port implementation in wine. Just now I have one of examples of the
serial communication problem.
  There is a very simple program, called ft or softjump, intended to dump
or modify some particular addresses of an EEPROM of an amateur radio. It
uses a serial port in non-canonical mode, writing always 5 binary chars into
it and reading (also binary) reply.
  I've run this program under wine but there were problems - the program never
dumped any data.
  The source is included in the program archive; it was about 30 minutes of
work to convert it for Linux. After successfull compilation, I've run the
resulting Linux program (pure Linux, not winelib) and it worked as expected.
  For the testing purposes, I've then compiled the original windows version
using winegcc. I was able to run the program, but the results were identical
to those with original windows binary (no data).

The windows binary output shows this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ft817$ wine ft.exe
ft.exe by Peter May, VK2JCG, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This program uses undocumented CAT commands to read or update the EEPROM
in the Yaesu FT817 and FT897 Radios. The soft jumper settings are stored
in location 4 and 5 of the EEPROM. Power the radio off and on to activate
the new settings. If you do a reset of the radio, you will have to run
this program again to rewrite the values

The program assumes that the radio is connected to COM1: and the CAT rate
is set to 38400 baud

*** USE AT YOUR OWN RISK ***

Serial port COM1: successfully reconfigured.

Read current data from EEPROM gives :

You can see the port configuration phase, as well 5 bytes being written and a
read being attempted. However, resulting count variable (see source) is
probably 0, because there is no output of values read. I don't know, whether
it is due to wrong command being written to the radio, or failure to read
its response.

Re: wine problems on a 64bit system

2006-06-01 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi Alexandre,
  many thanks that you are also looking at this problem.
 
 It may be that your kernel doesn't allow writable memory to be made
 executable, in which case we can't do anything about it. Or maybe the
 workaround is simply broken... It may also be possible to make that
 section executable some other way, you'll need to investigate what
 that memory address corresponds to in the app.

Running the app, it shows

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/il2sturmovikfb$ wine il2fb.exe
fixme:seh:check_no_exec No-exec fault triggered at 0x6d4d08b0, enabling 
work-around

Looking at /proc/pid/maps, it shows

6d4cf000-6d4d rw-p 6d4cf000 00:00 0

6d4d1000-6d4e3000 rw-p 6d4d1000 00:00 0

It looks that this page IS writable as well as executable.
However, there is nothing more about it, no indication of which part of the app
it corresponds to. Just a global data/BSS section ?

BTW the problem happens very early during startup, even before an Xserver is
accessed, so trying it from the text console (without $DISPLAY defined) gives
exactly the same results as from Xterm.

But now I'm unsure, maybe we are on a false track. I just examined +relay
output again and I've found that immediately after the No-exec message the
program seems to continue normally. The problem (exception loop in msvcrt)
occurs many thousands lines later. I'm attaching preceding cca 1500 lines
of the log.

 It sounds like the no-exec workaround worked fine, and that you have
 some other problem. What does a +seh trace look like?

It looks that the first exception is the No-exec, then there is one more lonely
one (at 0x6d4db3ef) and the third one (at 0x6d4d5d7b) is the first invocation
of the looping one - this one repeats in the log at the same address forever.

Re: wine problems on a 64bit system

2006-05-31 Thread Pavel Troller
 Hi Pavel,
Hi Steven!
 I've only slightly followed wine-devel recently
 
 Are you using a stock Fedora kernel? 
No. I'm using vanilla kernels just with exec-shield patch from Ingo Molnar.
I'm not using any well-known distro. 
 They are all (x86-64) built with SMP support.
My ones are also built with SMP support, because both the 64bit machines
have dual-core CPUs. One of them is Pentium-D and the second is Dual Opteron.
 Would it be possible to check with a custom built non-smp
 kernel to see if you have the same behavior? 
OK. These machines build a kernel in 3 minutes, no problem to try to disable
SMP and verify.
  However, the 32bit one is also SMP :-); it's MSI K7D Master board populated
with 2 Athlons MP. It works perfectly and it's ideal for gaming, because one
CPU handles Xserver and similar and the other runs the game :-). wine has no
problems with it.
 I've been looking in to
 this matter myself but its been slow going because I lack a 64bit
 system here. Can you run a strace on a winelib process and send us the
 results with both the SMP and non-smp kernels?
Will do.

Re: Compiling wine on an x86-64 system

2006-05-30 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi Rob!
 
 There are quite a few places that use i386 syscalls directly and you 
 just fixed the one place it was detected. What you need to do is to copy 
 a 32-bit unistd.h to asm-i386/unistd.h and make sure that it is included 
 correctly by asm/unistd.h.
 
  Many thanks for your explanation. 
  So I created my own /usr/include/asm directory and wrote a small script,
which populated it with files like this sample:

/* Automatically generated wrapper for asm/unistd.h - do not edit */

#ifdef __i386__
#  include asm-i386/unistd.h
#else
#  ifdef __x86_64__
#include asm-x86_64/unistd.h
#  else
#error Unknown architecture, neither i386 nor x86_64
#  endif
#endif

  asm-i386 and asm-x86_64 contain the appropriate headers from the kernel tree.
I hope it's a good solution to have a flexible bi-arch development system.

  After that, I recompiled wine (and removed my previous unistd.h hack first).
The resulting wine is fully functional now.

wine problems on a 64bit system

2006-05-30 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  As some of you know, I'm experimenting with my new 64bit systems. I've found
that there are problems running a lot of applications, which normally run on
a 32bit system.
  A typical example is IL2 Sturmovik Forgotten Battles game. On a 32bit system,
with the latest wine CVS (even compiled on a 64bit system) it runs flawlessly.
On a 64bit system, it just prints 
fixme:seh:check_no_exec No exec fault triggered at 0x6d4d08b0, enabling 
work-around
but the workaround seems to be unefficient, because nothing more happens.
With a +relay, it shows that the program is looping, executing
0009:Call msvcrt._except_handler3(7fb2faa0,7fb2fba0,7fb2f7d4,7fb2f714) 
ret=7bc54d65
0009:Ret  msvcrt._except_handler3() retval= ret=7bc54d65
and nothing more, ad infinitum.
  The machines are running very similar kernels. Both are hardened with
exec-shield, but even disabling it on a 64bit by
'echo 0 /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield' doesn't help. The 32bit works even with
exec-shield enabled (and doesn't print the no-exec message).
  Are there chances to fix this issue ? Or is it a system problem ?

Compiling wine on an x86-64 system

2006-05-29 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I would like to ask for a help with wine compilation on an x86_64 system.
  Today I successfully did the compilation, but the result is totally unusable.
  I've supplied -m32 switch to both CFLAGS and LDFLAGS (I have to specify my
own C/LDFLAGS because of custom -I/-L options to find various packages). gcc
as well as winegcc correctly generated 32bit output.
  There was just one error during compilation - it attempted to compile
dlls/ntdll/signal_i386.c, which suffered from __NR_sigaction being undefined.
Because my kernel headers are set up for a 64bit system, there is not such a
define. __NR_rt_sigaction is defined instead. I'm not sure whether it's ok
that wine tried to compile this file (it compiled signal_x86_64.c too, with
no problems). I also don't know how to hack the kernel includes to define it
correctly (I have just vanilla, unmodified set of native kernel headers for
2.6.17-rc5 set up). So I hacked it by copying the appropriate #define 
from asm-i386/unistd.h kernel header directly to signal_i386.c.
  wine then compiled and installed without a glitch. However, any attempt to
run it ends up with immediate return without any diagnosis. It even doesn't
output its usage help.
  I've already compiled a lot of normal programs for 32bit systems on my
x86_64 system. However, wine resists.
  What am I doing wrong ? What's the correct way ?
   With regards, Pavel Trolle




Regression in wine made 2006/03/23

2006-03-26 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I would like to report a regression made by commits issued 2006/03/23 at the
evening. Just now I don't have bisecting environment available, I've just made
a simple CVS regression testing and found the above commit (it modifies
multiple areas) guilty.
  The problem is that DC++ gui is totally screwed up now. It tries to render,
but mostly unsuccessfully, it's full of garbage and doesn't display, what it
should. It doesn't update when necessary. DC++ is simply unusable now.
  I should leave my testing machine now. I can try to pinpoint a particular
patch responsible for this regression later in the evening today, or tomorrow.
  If anybody has an idea, what change could cause this, please let me know,
it will be more easy for me.

SJphone crashing

Hi!
  I would like to test a free softphone application called SJphone (free
download from http://www.sjlabs.com ). I know there is a native Linux version,
but it's much less featured than the windows one (mainly missing skin support
and generally less options) and because I need to train other users how to use
the windows version, I have to try it for myself first :-).
  Installation is working well, no errors encountered. However, after trying to
run the program, its GUI appered for a while with a sandclock cursor and then
the following crash occured.
  I don't have access to real windows so I don't have any windows DLLs
available. Would it be possible to fix wine's ones to make the program working ?

Registry entries for serial ports not created

2006-01-01 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I was trying to utilize a program for updating mobile phone's firmware (for
Siemens/Benq mobiles, just an original app with encapsulated firmware image).
  This program immediately told that there are no serial ports present in my
machine and terminated. After a bit of seeking in my own memory and wine list
mail archive I remembered that there should be some registry entries which
a program can examine and get some basic info about the ports.
  In an old mail I found something, which I converted to the following
registry entry and put to system.reg file:

[Hardware\\Devicemap\\Serialcomm] 1015709345
Serial0=COM1
Serial1=COM2
Serial2=COM3
Serial3=COM4

  I think this should go to the standard system.reg by default, maybe in the
reduced form with just the first two ports. Together with correct links in
.wine/dosdevices, it makes that the program can really find the port.

  And at the end: How to create such a registry entry by wine's regedit ?
  I've spent about 15 minutes trying to do so but I've failed and then edited
the file manually. Any attempt to create a folder called Serialcomm in
Hardware\\Devicemap was unsuccessfull; I didn't find how to create a folder
for keys, and using Add key menu entry I always got an error dialog saying
A subkey must be volatile. What does it mean ?
 With regards, Pavel Troller





Re: Registry entries for serial ports not created

2006-01-01 Thread Pavel Troller
 Hm must be a win9x format. Because on winNT+ it's
 \Device\Serial0=COM1 - exactly as symlinks in \??\.
 
Possibly, I don't know windoze at all. I just looked at the trace output,
which key the program tried to open, and grepped that string in my mail
archive. What I found, I entered to the registry, and the program was
happy then.
  So, to prevent guessing or entering some default values for everybody,
maybe it could be made configurable using winecfg; I can imagine a tab
called I/O ports or similarly, which would allow users to enter their
port configuration similarly as for disk drives. winecfg would create
dosdevices links (or its equivalent) as well as those registry entries.

 I've checkt the /etc/hosts now. You were right, it says 
 
 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain   localhost   Zwirch

Hi !
  Yes, I know that *MANY* well-known distros are wrong with /etc/hosts and
similar files..
  The trick is that specifying your hostname for localhost interface improves
Linux functionality in the case that there isn't other network interface
active. Otherwise, a plenty of services would not work locally. However, when
a real network interface comes up, it should be changed and moved to the line
with a real IP address, which is not so obvious in the real world...
  I think that it is NOT GOOD to patch wine to fix this case; it behaves
absolutely correctly and all the problem should be solved by correctly
configuring your Linux networking. Please see any good document about naming
principles of network interfaces.

Hi!
  Yes, it uncovers even more problems with the /etc/hosts file on many
distributions (hey, I'm so happy that I'm maintaining my own private
distro, independently of all the big players on the market :-) ).
  However, your link talks mainly about localhost.localdomain. I am even more
strict and I'm saying that the host name also should not be there.
  And because I know that the host name should be assigned to EXACTLY ONE
network interface, it is a reason that in my distro, when there are no public
if's active, a dummy0 comes up and the host name is assigned to it. This if
holds an address DIFFERENT from localhost (192.168.0.1 is used as a
preconfigured default on a fresh install).
  Once more, please don't patch wine, it's evidently not its problem at all!

Re: gethostbyname(my_name) and IL2-Sturmovik

2005-12-13 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
 
 I think you are wrong. POSIX does not say that it's wrong to have the 
 computer name associated with 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts, and it doesn't say 
 that gethostbyname(my_name) should return a real IP. 
OK, but it also doesn't explicitly state that gethostbyname(my_name) may
return 127.0.0.1, so it's just neutral :-).
 If I remember 
 correctly, though, Microsoft, specifies that gethostbyname(my_name) 
 *should* return real IP.
I don't know M$ standards, sorry, cannot comment on this.
 
 This subtle difference means that Wine must take extra care. Fetching a 
 real IP on a UNIX host is not trivial, but doable.
 
Yes, it is.

BUT:
  man 5 hosts tells that:
  
  The  Berkeley  Internet Name Domain (BIND) Server implements the Internet 
name server for UNIX systems. It augĀ­
   ments or replaces the /etc/hosts file or host name lookup, and frees a host 
from relying on /etc/hosts being up
   to date and complete.
  
  So it seems to imply that the DNS info is currently an authoritative source
for host name queries. Of course everybody knows it, I'm just making note of
it to support my following question:
  Did you ever see in the real world that a DNS server would return 127.0.0.1
as a response to a regular host name query ? I think not. 
  And on the other side, try to query a DNS server for localhost. Every DNS
server should immediately return 127.0.0.1, it's RFC compliance requirement.
  Isn't it logical to keep the host table coherent with DNS ? Or are you happy
that in case your DNS server fails you get totally different results ?
  
  Of course I cannot argue more. It's just about the administrator's personal
style and knowledge. I'm maintaining and administering Unix systems from 1985,
long before Linux was born, and I would never allow such a thing in my host
table. But if the current distro maintainers are of another view, I will not
do anything against it. It's just about Open Source freedom: I will remove that
patch from wine for me, and that's it :-).

 Anyone know why this patch wasn't applied ? I don't know about anyone else but
 I'm still getting va_list undeclared.

The stdarg.h include has to go in the C files that need it, not in the
header since it's not in the Windows header.

Re: Fwd: Re: Fwd: MBR was destroyed

2005-11-20 Thread Pavel Troller
Hello,
 
 I think I still didn't make myself clear. Yes there is (I guess) a bad
 bug in Wine. But: giving normal users a right to write to /dev/hd? is
 very dangerous and should be avoided.
  Exactly, I second this. For example, in my standard Linux setup, the disks
have the following permissions:
brw---  1 root root 3, 0 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda
brw---  1 root root 3, 1 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda1
brw---  1 root root 3, 2 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda2
brw---  1 root root 3, 3 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda3
brw---  1 root root 3, 4 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda4
brw---  1 root root 3, 5 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda5
brw---  1 root root 3, 6 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda6
brw---  1 root root 3, 7 Nov 13 19:58 /dev/hda7
 
 Why would a normal user need a write access to /dev/hd? ?
  I can imagine just a single exception - when it is a windows partition,
used directly by some windows emulation software (as vmware can). But AFAIK
wine cannot do this, so it's not needed there.
 
 Wine can have bugs, any other application could have bugs that made them
 try to write things to /dev/hd?. You could get some virus or whatever
 that execute with you user's right and you really don't want it to wipe
 out your hdd, do you ?
Even the user can have a bug :-). I'm running and administering UN*X systems
from 1989 but I still strictly distinguish between root and user rights. I've
found it very VERY useful. 
  However, I'm also voting for finding and solving this wine bug.
  With regards, Pavel Troller




Re: Could not determine operating system. Exiting.

2005-10-27 Thread Pavel Troller
 I'm guessing the answer is no, but is there a free version of the
 program or a demo that we can download?  It's hard to find this type
 of bug without having the program to tinker with.  Assuming the answer
 is no, can you provide the line where the dialog pops up and ~1000
 lines before that point in a +version,+relay log?  Zip that up and
 either send it back to the list (if the size isn't too large and the
 mailing list lets it through) or post it on a website where we can
 access the log.
Hi James!
  Thanks for Your help, I made some progress in this issue.
  I've looked once more to the +relay log (+version gives nothing). I've
found that about 2000 lines before the dialog pops up there is a block
reading all the NAMES of environment variables and comparing them with
OS. So I intuitively entered OS=Windows NT before starting the program
and now I'm getting another pop-up, saying that only NT is supported. So my
OS string is wrong. I can find, where my name string retrieved from the
envvar, but there isn't any comparison visible in the log (i.e. it's done
internally in the program). 
  So what I need now, is an exact string, which NT4.0 put to the OS envvar.
  And I have a tip for wine improvement: maybe it would be good, that
wine itself would set up such a variable according to the OS version it's
emulating.
  With regards, Pavel Troller

 James Hawkins




Strange problem with writing files from wine

2005-09-06 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I have problems with writing files from wine (today's CVS). Typical example
is word95, which always writes something like:

Cannot access folder F:\filename.doc
: unaccessible or protected by password

(in my local language, so it may be inaccurate).
There is a small problem with this strange indentation (that the second double
quote is on a next line, but it is not fatal. More fatal is that this dialog
even occurs and the file cannot be written.
I've created a tracefile with +file and I think I've found the problem.
At the moment of attempt to write (in this example, F:\brumbal.doc), there
appears:
trace:file:CreateFileW L.\\F: GENERIC_READ FILE_SHARE_READ 
FILE_SHARE_WRITE  creation 3 attributes 0x0
trace:file:RtlDosPathNameToNtPathName_U (L.\\F:,0x7fc8975c,(nil),(nil))

/home/patrol/.wine/dosdevices/f:/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/opt/samba-dir/Program Files/Microsoft Office/Office$

Why the hell wine is trying to access /dev/hdb1 ? Yes, my home directory is on
it, but I think that such a form of access is not good :-). In my
.wine/dosdevices, there is clearly a line

lrwxrwxrwx  1 patrol users 12 Sep  7 06:50 f: - /home/patrol

Or am I misinterpreting the log and the failure is caused by something else ?
Otherwise wine is working near to perfect now.

Possible regression in CVS wine

2005-09-04 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
  I've just upgraded wine on my son's computer by today's CVS. He tried some
games and one of them stopped working. It's hind95 and the game bails out on
an illegal instruction - outb, jumping into winedbg. Backtrace shows just
3 levels of game code itself, no dlls involved.
  I understand that user code cannot perform direct hardware I/O, but the game
worked just before the upgrade (on wine about 1 month old). I don't know whether
wine is normally intercepting and emulating these instructions, and the CVS
version doesn't, or whether a new wine caused that another code path has been
activated in the game code, leading to such a problem.
  There is also native w2k version of the game (hind.exe) but it still doesn't
work in wine: it very sow renders the splash screen and
then sits there and does nothing more.
  The game can be freely downloaded from www.abandonia.com; just search hind
in the title page. There is probably a dynamic download URL used so I'm not
posting it there.
With regards, Pavel Troller




Re: Possible regression in CVS wine

2005-09-04 Thread Pavel Troller
 Hi,
 I haven't tried to run the game but maybe the problem is that wine now 
 defaults to behave like Win 2000[1] which does not allow privileged 
 instructions.
 You could try to set windows version to 98 with winecfg
Hi!
  Thanks, it was really the problem. Program runs now, and even better than
before. We upgraded wine because some programs were not getting the keyboard
and this problem now seems to be fixed.

  Exactly the same here. BerElement is undefined in winldap_private.h. It's

leads to a lot of collisions. So I copied the definition of BerElement from
winldap.h to winldap_private.h and it at least compiles :-).

Window geometry problem

2005-06-08 Thread Pavel Troller
Hi!
 I would like to report a long lasting problem with an application, which
renders its main window incorrectly in wine.
 The app is iRiver caption editor and it can be freely downloaded at
http://www.iriveramerica.com/download/ce.zip .
 Installation of the program is easy and proceeds and the program itself runs
well, but its window looks like a total mess. For a snapshot, look at
http://www.sinus.cz/~patrol/ircape.png .
 I think it's not necessary to write more, what's wrong, simply the widgets
are misplaced, incorrectly sized, the window has scrollbars, which it IMHO
shouldn't have etc. The window is not resizable.
 It's the only app known to me which exhibits such a behaviour. I don't have
a possibility to test it on a real windoze system, I don't have it.
 I'm about to file a bug for it, but I'm asking first here to verify that
it's not an easily resolvable problem with my setup etc., and also whether
a similar (or the same) behaviour isn't already registered.

Reporting Unknown EXE OS version and a non-functioning program

  Because my kids are obsessed by trains and everything about them, I've 
decided to download them a train simulation game. Because I refuse to use
anything from M$ and I didn't find any train simulator for Linux, I've found
and downloaded a free miniature train simulator, available for download at
http://jeanmichel.kerdal.free.fr/Train/train.zip . I've unzipped the package
and tried to run the Install.exe file. But the only I get is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/train$ wine Install.exe

 partially implemented.
fixme:ole:OLEPictureImpl_SaveAsFile (0x767bd768)-(0x767bffd0, 0, (nil)),

The program then simply runs and waits fot the rain (or maybe train :-) ?)
without any visible activity and should be killed. 
  Normally I wouldn't report this because there is still a lot of programs which
are incompatible with wine (oh these windows programmers... :-) ). But this
one explicitly asked for reporting, so I'm just doing what it asked for :-).
  This is with a fresh wine CVS update, which reports itself as wine-20050310.

Re: Poor performance when using Texas Instruments code generation tools in Wine

2005-02-22 Thread Pavel Troller
 Hi !
 
 We have some performance problems with Wine that we could use some help on..
 
 Here's the story:
 
 We have been using TI code generation tools (compiler and linker) on 
 Wine, and it has worked well. However, when we started evaluating newer 
 versions of the codegen tools, the linking time was dramatically 
 increased (from 20 sec to 30 minutes...).
 
 We have done some profiling using oprofile, and found that most of this 
 time (96%) is spent in the HEAP_FindFreeBlock* *function in the ntdll 
 module. The time needed to locate a free heap block increases gradually, 
 from a few iterations up to about 15000 in the project we are building. 
 We suspect that this may be due to fragmentation caused by the heap 
 allocate/free algorithms.
 
Hi!
  Maybe this can also explain the slowdown of long-running apps under wine ?
For example, DC++ runs perfectly when started, but after 12 hours of operation
the window updates, search and other program functions are so incredibly slow,
that it's better to kill it and restart.
   With regards, Pavel Troller
