           Summary: Autocad 2005 bug list
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0-rc4
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2

        ReportedBy: max at veneto.com


I open this "metabug" in the effort to bring AutoCAD 2005 at leas to Gold
status.
Here I'll post errors encountered from setup up to application successful run,
with links to opened bugs related to this application.
I hope that will serve as a ordered guide to solve all of them.

Starting with release rc-4, clean .wine directory.

Here we encounter http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13599
Installer hangs on vba setup.

Must be solved, but the workaround from Louis Lenders (which is only a
temporary solution aimed to avoid a crash) allow the installer to finish :

http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=13812

The hack is a patch on dlls/msi/custom.c file.

So, let's start with setup on patched wine, clean .wine folder.
Now the setup finishes, but with many errors regarding dotnet1.1 setup.
See http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9140 , left opened because of dotnet
1.1 setup failure.

So, next step, again clean .wine plus dotnet2.0 installed. The 2.0 is needed
because on 1.1 autocad setup tries to install an upgrade, which leads to bug
above.
Now setup finishes well, and application starts. An error message is shown :
"ERROR: identity.ini file format invalid"
This error doesn't prevent app to run and is shown only on first start.

Strange enough, all seems to work, even VBA on which bug 13599 was related; btw
I just opened VBA ide, and closed it, as I don't use VBA.
.NET parts of application, like layer manager, work flawlessy.
Autocad finds correctly all linux installed printers and can print on them.
3d modeling works too, I've the feeling that is even faster than in windows xp.
Rendering works, as do all stuffs I've tested.
So, we can give a "silver" status because of needed hacks on wine and the use
of winetricks for dotnet.

Now the bad : text rendering is awfully slow. Working on a drawing with many
texts/quotes inside makes scrolling/pannin/zooming a pain.
The problem is related ONLY to texts; even very big raster images renders very
fast, I'd say even faster than in windows XP.
I'll file the bug for text rendering.

Concluding, once solved bug 13599 app could gain gold status; if dotnet 1.1 is
solved too (bug 9140) and the "slow text rendering bug "it could have platinum
status.

Ciao

Max
