             Bug #: 30154
           Summary: wine is blocking X and flooding Xorg log with EDID
                    requests
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86

Product Name: CrossOver Linux
Public Version: 11.0.0

wine is flooding xorg with EDID requests (xrandr) and causing X to block for
several seconds!. Every progress bar update triggers an xrandr request and a
block of X. I am aware that there is a standing kernel bug, and that there has
been an old wine bug for this (bug 11470), but the real problem is that:

1) wine is calling xrandr repeatedly for every app start (and during running)
which it shouldn't.
2) wine should use xrandr --current which does not reprobe but takes the
current results and does not block at all! ( also see active conversation
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/24/22)

Using xrandr --current would solve the issue. It is still the question why wine
needs to probe so often in the first place, no other app needs to do this.
