           Summary: Strange problem with a win32 app. Changing desktop =
                    Slowliness & app dissapears
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.41.
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://bugs.opencompositing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=234
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-binary
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: hexium at terra.es


I filed this bug to the Compiz developers, but they rejected as it's
reproduceable too with metacity and kwin. They told me it's a wine bug, so here
I file it :)
---------

This can be nominated to the strangest-bug-ever awards :)

I have no problem with any application but this. Can be reproduced always, and
happens both in Compiz Fusion and Beryl (last version released).

Steps:

- Download smsxeon.exe application. It's an app to send mobile messages in
Spain (don't worry, no viruses nor strange stuff).
Homepage: http://perso.gratisweb.com/xeon/
Direct link: http://perso.gratisweb.com/xeon/smsxeon.zip

- Uncompress and launch smsxeon.exe with wine (run it better from a terminal)

- Now, change the desktop (I'm using desktop wall, but it's also reproduceable
with the cube).

**** The transaction between the desktops is SLOW due to a 100% CPU use
(probably by XGL process, but I cannot be sure since it's just for 3 or 4
seconds)

- Change back to the previous desktop

**** The application window isn't there. It has dissappeared and cannot be
released again until CTRL-C and relaunch. If you check the terminal, the app is
still running (that's why I stated to be launched there)


Note: I don't have this bug with all the other applications I've run with wine.
I'm experienced this with at least the last 4 or 5 version of wine and with
*all* versions of Compiz Fusion (and Beryl).

My system: Compiz Fusion git (Treviño's repo), Ubuntu Feisty i386, ATI with
fglrx driver, XGL.
