Hi,

as of wine-1.1.21, wine does not recognize the "early 2009" Mac Mini
OpenGL version string from nVidia:
err:d3d_caps:IWineD3DImpl_FillGLCaps Invalid nVidia version string: "2.0 NVIDIA-1.5.44"

The string probably originates from XQuartz' X11.2.3.3.2. The wine
source code expects a space after NVIDIA. On Linux, the numbers are
much higher, e.g. "2.1.2 NVIDIA 173.14.09" or "2.1.0 NVIDIA 97.55" -- 2 samples from Google.

Before I submit a patch to have wine recognize either space or "-" as
separator, I'd like to query the list whether it actually makes sense
to return major = 1, minor = 5, i.e. Apple numbers to a MS-Windows program?

Or should I not care about the useage and just parse the string (i.e. submit patch)?

Thanks,
	Jörg Höhle
