           Summary: Penumbra causes system crash
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://frictionalgames.com/penumbra
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-misc
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ploujj at gmail.com


At various parts of the game, my whole Linux system crashes. X disappears. My
monitors go blank. I actually hear my case fans spin up as if they do when the
system boots. I cannot ping the machine. In fact, I believe the system reboots
itself, but fails to get beyond POST. If I press the reset power button on the
case, the system reboots, but doesn't get beyond POST again. Only after the
second time of pressing the reset button my system boots up properly.

I tried piping the output of wine to a log file but either no messages are
printed, or the buffer isn't written to the disk before the machine
crashes/restarts. I also checked my Xorg and syslog but neither show any problems.

I have experienced this problem 4 times - always at different spots in the game.

As far as I remember, this is the first time my Linux system crashed this badly.

Wine version 0.9.26 and 0.9.25 was tested. Wine was obtained from git and
compiled. OS: Gentoo amd64.
