[Bug 17771] New: Morrowind: trying to configure controls results in freeze (reboot necessary)
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17771
Summary: Morrowind: trying to configure controls results in freeze (reboot necessary) Product: Wine Version: 1.1.17 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: sick_soul@yahoo.it
Steps to reproduce: * launch Morrowind (wine Morrowind.exe) * select Options * select Controls * left-click any of the controls to change it * a message appears instructing to 'press any key or button' to associate to this action * now press any key or mouse button * the application freezes.
After the freeze it is impossible to switch to another workspace (ALT+F2, ALT+F3,.. does not work anymore), and no other key has any effect (not even CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, nothing at all). The mouse pointer is also frozen.
The same problem also appears ingame while attacking (left-click), and walking at the same time, especially backwards ('S' key). After some time the player is "stuck" walking backwards, and again no input is processed anymore. Eventually the application freezes and a reboot again is necessary.
Tried the following with no improvement:
tried using native dinput.dll and/or dinput8.dll, quarz.dll (any combination). tried enabling/disabling DXGrab. tried emulating a virtual desktop 800x600 tried enabling/disabling window manager decorations/windows control tried editing Morrowind.ini to disable the DXGrab (Background Keyboard = 1)
Configuration: PC-x86 Pentium 4, nvidia GeForce 6600, Linux 2.6.27.19, X Server 1.4.0.90, wine git 3d35a630c4ae65fb4ab3aaf408a09051d5067b4f.
no library overrides,
Direct3D\OffscreenRenderingMode=fbo Direct3D\VideoMemorySize=256
If you need a WINEDEBUG log, please tell me which channels/grep patterns you need. Tried a +relay and got an incredibly huge file (even reducing to the last 5 seconds before the freeze yields a huge file).

--- Comment #1 from L. Rahyen mail@science.su 2009-03-18 08:57:56 --- I can confirm this bug. More importantly I can confirm that this isn't NVidia driver bug or X server bug because everything works, including Alt+Tab so I can easily switch to the console, type killall Morrowind.exe and xrandr -s 0 to "repair" my resolution.
To bug reporter: try to update your NVidia driver. For me with GeForce 8600 GT and 180.27 X server doesn't hang and I can easily kill the game as I explained before. BTW, you can also try to use Alt+SysRq+K instead of Alt+Ctrl+Backspace - it will work even if X server is dead (but only if the Linux kernel is still alive and you have support for SysRq keys compiled in).

--- Comment #3 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2009-09-22 14:00:39 --- Is this still an issue in current (1.1.29 or newer) wine?

Looks like a duplicate of #8854.
It is still an issue in current git (1.3.5)
I think this is a dupe. I use KDE and I am able to press alt+f2 and the command killall Morrowind.exe to restore my desktop. Hence it's only the game that is stuck, not the entire desktop.

--- Comment #6 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2011-05-21 22:30:10 CDT --- I'm experiencing the same problem with wine-1.3.20-230-g456e48e: Morrowind hangs when I try to reassign any keys in the options menu.
Workaround: the patch in bug #8854 fixes the problem.
Seems to be a dupe of bug #8854 to me.

--- Comment #7 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2011-10-25 12:58:35 CDT --- The patch in bug #8854 fixes the freezing problem in Morrowind GOTY, when trying to reassign the controls (I've just tried it again with wine-1.3.31-44-g5e0050d).
Marking as a dupe of bug #8854.
