Hello, I have searched, read and tried everything I can think of, but without success. So I really need some help here. The application I am currently trying to use is PixPlant, but I have the same problems with other apps using directx or opengl (I am totally confused now) to display some content. PixPlant is a program for generating textures. It has an area in its main window where it displays the current texture rendered on a 3d object. But instead I see a garbled "screenshot" of the window/s below it. Forcing the application to update or change the content in this area doesn't force this area to update and change visually to its normal content. Below are some technical details, please let me know if I should post more info. wine: 1.2.3, both 32 and 64 bit OS: Gentoo 64 bit, recently updated. Video: Nvidia Quadro 2000, nvidia drivers version 270.41.19 Here is the console output of the program itself, installed and run on a new wine prefix. Besides some program specific stuff it contains statistics and info about my hardware and system, which might be useful to you: --- peter@peter ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/PixPlant2 $ wine PixPlant.exe fixme:gdi:ExtCreatePen Hatches not implemented Creating resource group General Creating resource group Internal Creating resource group Autodetect SceneManagerFactory for type 'DefaultSceneManager' registered.

And although DirectX seemed to install itself O.K. the problem with PixPlant persisted. Running dxdiag.exe after DirectX installation doesn't produce any output neither on the console or the expected application window with stats, tests, etc. The command just exits silently.
