wine users - Dec 2011 - Re: OpenGL issues on OSX (wine 1.3.21)

Hi All, 

Just to show progress on this:

- With Apple's X11 compiling/linking (and using the Apple's X11
runtime):
The app did not run, just lock and no reports at all.
- With Apple's X11 compiling/linking (and using the XQuartz runtime):

The apps run without problems, pretty fast and stable, but no OpenGL rendering
at all (set off screen: invalid drawable).
- With the XQuartz compiling/linking (and using the XQuartz runtime):

The app did not run (see below)

X Error of failed request:  0
  Major opcode of failed request:  149 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  26 (X_GLXMakeContextCurrent)
  Serial number of failed request:  3318
  Current serial number in output stream:  3318


This is just a little tests I made before going deep into this issues.

I want to le you note that the custom app I'm running (beside the qtgears
sample) is an high-end big/complex app with so many dependencies (on the Windows
front), and wine made it works pretty well (Using the mix X11/Quartz runtime).

Best Regards

Hi Clanzotti,

I want to say many thanks for looking deeper into this.

Michael, the developer of Moi3D, the application I actually was trying to get to
work through Wine, has released a version that now runs fine through Wine by
avoiding this 'render to child window' code branch. So I think not much
is missing to get more OpenGL applications work with Wine under OSX.

Wish you good luck, and a happy New Year!
