Systray and window work fine. When Ubuntu added Wine 0.9.30 to the repositories I naturally upgraded. At first utorrent worked great as usual, although I noticed that the main menu icons (the add torrent, stop, start, etc buttons...) were not rendered correctly. They are squished, with the bottoms cut off. After a few days, I started up utorrent and the window worked fine, but the systray did not appear. Obviously, if I minimized utorrent to the systray, I had no way of bringing it back. It was running fine in the background. After a few more days, starting utorrent yielded no window at all! It was running in the background and I can hear my drive ticking torrents away. I tried deleting my .wine dir and reinstalling 0.9.30, which only resulting in the same problems. I downgraded my Wine installation back to 0.9.22 and, so far, have had none of these problems.

Ubuntu 7.10, Gnome, Wine 0.9.52, µTorrent 1.7.5. uTorrent worked fine for me in 0.9.51 except for small hiccups when trying to minimize to/from systray (had to right-click systray icon and excplicitly chose the option to minimize to tray or it would just minimize to tasklist). Now, I'm having great troubles restoring it to a non-minimized state. Sometimes the window is completely scrambled, which reminds me of incorrect resolution setting in Windows... Most of the time the window simply doesn't appear. The systray icon is not working at all and gets the wrong icon (same as the app next to it). The only reliable way I've found to restore the window is to first minimize it, right-click the tasklist item and click close (which does nothing) and then double-click the tasklist item to restore the window. I think the problems disappeared in the 1.8.0B version, but I am unable to use it because of tracker restrictions on beta clients. Removing Settings.dat did not help.

The links to µTorrent's forum above suggests problems with SSDP and related services in XP, which I do have active in Vista, and had active in XP without problems. They also suggest troubles with user switching. I don't have multiple accounts in Vista, so I can't confirm it there, but in XP I did. The problem with disappearing windows and icons under Wine also applies to other programs I'm running, such as Steam. (Don't run any others than those regulary.) The programs' systray icon is either random garbage or "stolen" from another program also running in the systray. The context menues for them seem to work most of the time though, but not always. The menu for µUtorrent's systray icon sometimes appear on my left screen's bottom right corner, instead of my right screen's bottom right corner, but I'm assuming that's unrelated as it was positioned correctly before I got my other screen (same problems otherwise with a single screen). First time I used Steam/µTorrent their systray icons were fine and their windows minimized/maximized/updated correctly. But soon after they failed to work properly in the ways described here before. And they do still work in Vista with the exact same files. So this might indeed a problem with Wine! I'm not saying it's just Wine' having issues tho, but it's definately something wrong with it since none of the problems I'm having have ever appeared for me in Windows. And even if "Wine is just copying Windows' behavior 'bug-for-bug'", wouldn't it be futile to do that without knowing why or how? If there's a definite bug in Windows to point at and say "That is what we're copying correctly." Wine users could atleast be reassured that's the way it's "supposed to be (until fixed in Windows)". But now it's just (IMHO) "Works in Windows for everyone but a few, but not at all in Wine, and is it even actually related reasons for not doing so?" IMHO, copying a bug "by accident" and then saying "it's how it's supposed to be and we've [intentionally] replicated it that way." is taking the easy way out. Sorry for making the tone of this post a bit harsh, it's not my intention to upset anyone over this small matter. These issues have just been annoying me so long now, and with every new version of Wine, µT or Steam I hope there's been improvement, but nothing. And the post about flagging this as invalid kinda felt like the last drop... I think we've gathered enough intel in this report to know that something is going on, and there's a good chance it's in Wine somewhere. I'd be glad to help digging through the code (to actually do something other than whine about things not working), had I not already had too many projects going on atm. So, unless this issue has been resolved once and for all when I get more spare time, I promise to personally do my best at it.

I did try to understand all the conflicting opinions here, and those bug reports really gave me an impression of this not being in Wine at all. However, now you are clearly telling you disagree. Ok... Let's find out the truth. You tell things work right on Vista. Are you using the exact same version of uTorrent then? If no, then uTorrent might have fixed things. If yes, then there might be a countering fix in Vista. (I'm not sure, but I think I've heard of something such.) Now, the much more interesting case for fixing this bug are those who ran uTorrent on Windows and still fail. Which version of uTorrent do they have when failing and when not? They can show, if it was a regression in uTorrent. (my theory) And for Wine, people here say they've had uTorrent working before, but not anymore. Is that REALLY a regression in Wine? If it is, then it can be found out by running a regression test - keeping the uTorrent version unchanged and changing Wine until there will be a culprit found.

I really appreciate you, and everyone else, actually taking time to do something about this, no matter where the problem is. To not drag this even more off topic, I'll get to the point: I mentioned I have two screens before, some time ago I had disconnected one of my screens and went back to a regular setup (single monitor at 1280x1024 instead of 3600x1200 stretched across two, using the nvidia gfx tool and virtual resolutions). The thing is that when I had done this and bootet up, µTorrent sat there nicely in the systray and minimize/maximize both to systray and normal "programs list" worked fine! Behaviour was concistent after reboots and ending/starting µT as well, until I hooked up another screen again and µT got buggy again. This was with version 1.7.7 of µTorrent and 0.9.57 of wine I think. (Don't remember exactly cause I was only using that setup for about a week while back home at my parents' place.) Yes these are the exact same .exe files and config files used under XP, Vista and Ubuntu (folder symlinked), ranging from wine 1.7.4 to 1.7.7. Also tested briefly with 1.8 alpha, which seemed to work better, but I had to remove it fast or get banned from trackers. :( I'm not definatley sure this is a regression in Wine, but I think it might be unwise to close this discussion before it's been determined what the cause really is. Sorry for not being able to give more detailed info about this, or running a regression test yet, but I simply don't have the time. :( Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wine/+bug/237300/comments/26 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2008-04-10T16:44:07+00:00 Henrik Danielsson wrote: I just got yet another kernel panic freeze and booted up with the last kernel on my grub list to test that instead. For some reason, my gfx drivers weren't activated here, so my desktop was cloned (800x600 looks really bad on a 24" widescreen, btw...). Guess what, uTorrent auto-started and now lies comfortably in the systray. I can mini-/maximize/open/close/restart it without any problems.

Resizing the desktop window on the fly is not supported at the moment, it's not specific to systray. This is bug 13034.

This is bug 13034. The problem is unrelated to the actual resizing action. It doesn't matter if I have µTorrent/Wine running or not when resizing, once I try using it with dual monitors the systray icon breaks and I can't get it back unless I run with a single monitor. This of course includes tests with restarting the computer etc after switching resolutions, to make sure it's not the actual resizing breaking things. And yes, I do experience bug 13034 too if I have µTorrent running when switching resolutions. And just to be sure, I moved the systray to the other monitor (and other panels) as well, same problem there.

Anyways, I'd just like to say that the systray icons and everything else that I had problems with works in Wine 1.1.2 both for µTorrent 1.7.7 & 1.8 as well as Steam. Thank you, Wine Devs!
