           Summary: DX3 game does not recognize graphics capabilities
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.24
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=versi
                    on&iId=9396
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-ddraw

Resident Evil 1 does not start giving the error "Failed to initialize the
Graphics Hardware Device.(3)". It's a DirectX 3 game using immediate mode.

After some debugging I found that it relies on 3 (three) entries returned by
EnumDevices whereas wine returns only the Direct3D HAL entry in this case
(d3dversion == 1). Removing the if-clause in ddraw/direct3d.c and duplicating
the HAL entry solves the problem and the game actually runs almost perfectly
(Garbage -> Platinum).

I checked a Windows installation which returns "HAL", "RGB Emulation" and "Ramp
Emulation" but the comments in the file suggest that not all games are happy
about that. So how to fix this properly?
