           Summary: Dragon Age: Origins, black flickering in opening menu
                    screen when mouse moves
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: msvcrt
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


Now that bug 22200 is fixed, Dragon Age Online no longer needs native
msvcr80.  But when you move the mouse, there are black
bars in the game's opening menu page.
You can work around this with WINEDEBUG=-msvcrt.
The messages this suppresses look like this:

fixme:msvcrt:_controlfp_s (0x518e8f8 655391 196608) semi-stub
fixme:msvcrt:__crtGetStringTypeW (unk 0, type 1, wstr 0x518e58c(1), 0x518e590)
partial stub

This seems to be a concrete case of a verbose FIXME causing suboptimal
performance.   Should we
a) declare this to be not a problem because the user is supposed to read the
manual or appdb and know to use WINEDEBUG=-all when running this app?
b) declare this to be not a problem because the distro is supposed to patch
or wrap wine to always run apps with WINEDEBUG=-all?
c) temporarily mark the FIXMEs that cause the performance problem to be
displayed once only?
or d) something else?
