           Summary: NVIDIA drivers crashing X, looking like wine bug
                    (RESOLVED)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.53.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: x11-driver
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: arno at teigseth.no


Created an attachment (id=10437)
 --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=10437)
extract of Xorg.log

Running "wine notepad" (any application really) crashes X. But running "wine
--version" does not.

I tailed the Xorg.log (see attached) and found that actually the nvidia 3rd
party driver crashed. Guess some update to X was done without reinstalling the
drivers.

How to fix: 1 Kill running xserver(s) 2 Reinstall NVIDIA 3rd party drivers. 3
restart gdm or xserver(s).

I submit this bug here because it _did look a lot like a wine bug_:

mplayer with hardware acceleration worked, firefox and various media player
plugins worked, in general X seemed OK. But running an application thru wine
killed the X session and restarted gdm. But wine wasn't guilty... :)
