           Summary: Starcraft does not run decently anymore in 0.9.16.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.16.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-directx-ddraw
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: z77y16 at hotmail.com


Starcraft has become incredibly slow in 0.9.16, presumably because of ddraw
changes. The prior version I was using was 0.9.14, in which SC ran ok.

Other users reported similar problems with other games. They could work around
by matching the game bit depth on their display. 

This trick does not work with Starcraft. It is an 8bpp game. It never ran on an
8bpp display and it is still true today with 0.9.16. Trying to run SC on a 8bpp
display results in the game crashing. More specifically, the display will remain
black. Waiting for a few secs before killing the display will give Wine the
chance to dump a stack trace.
