I've submitted a bug on this issue, but I'm hoping to find a workaround that may help resolve the bug or get me to where I want to be - racing this game. Wine 0.9.22-9ubuntu3 (edgy) Installed on Ubuntu - Edgy Eft (2.6.17-10-generic) I did not compile this, installed as a package via Ubuntu's App Manager I don't use Windows with wine Application: NASCAR 2003 (CD Installed version, no patches or mods) Command line: wine NR2003.exe Behavior: The game starts with the intro movie correctly. The sound seems to "repeat" - this is mainly the clicks" and audio feedback to making choices. I can make the game "lock up" by clicking on menu choices as I enter the game. The sound just repeats over and over and never seems to get better. The sounds do sound correct. This behavior makes the game unplayable, as I can't even set options without the sound locking the game up. Interestingly, this problem seemed to lessen (very little lockup, but still sound duplication) when I ran in debug mode to generate the file. Additional info: Audio settings (from winecfg): OSS Driver selected Hardware Accelleration: Emulation Default Sample Rate: 22050 Default bits: 8 Driver emulation: No Audio device: 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio (Intel) I noticed the following messages on the console when having this issue: fixme:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne problem with underrun detection (mixlen=8072 < primary_done=49392) ... err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x1ad5d60 [many of those repeated then...] err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0xf41a08 "?" wait timed out in thread 0014, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec) It's this block that makes the game unusable - the sound just repeats over and over the same thing. I've tried some of the other audio settings which don't seem to work. The game does run if I disable all audio. :) Not too useful. Is there a setting that I should be trying? Is there a driver that I should update? 3 The bug link: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7415 Regards, chgowiz _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
