           Summary: Oddworld: screen stays frozen with the menu screen
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.31

This bug affects (at least) the first 2 games from the Oddworld series: Abe's
Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus. The games were released around 1997/98.

The problem (in the full game, Steam version here): various intro videos/splash
screens are displayed correctly after starting the game. Finally the main menu
appears, but the screen stays frozen (not refreshing) at this point. The game
is still running, audio and keyboard work, but all I can see is the frozen main
menu.

In the demo, the game starts with a black screen, and the screen stays that
way: normally, various splash screens should be displayed, then the menu should
appear, but you can only see a black screen. The game is running fine, you can
hear the sound effects, keyboard also works.

The result of the regression test:

8330558e125c9073068ffbd7741f1128c17c1e08 is the first bad commit

The patch cannot be reverted on the current git (wine-1.3.31-106-gda6363e), but
git checkout 8330558e125c9073068ffbd7741f1128c17c1e08  >> frozen screen
git reset --hard HEAD^   >> the game starts correctly

Nothing interesting in the terminal.
