Mea culpa... I did not realize that you might have referred to a winedbg
backtrace.

I tried to get one but the howto in the wine wiki (wiki.winehq.org/Backtraces)
appears to be slightly outdated.


Here's what I've done:

1. start the application with "wine Gw2.exe"

2. open another terminal for "winedbg" -> "info process" -> "attach 0x...". So
far so good.

3. then, using "set $!BreakOnFirstChance=0" in winedbg as suggested in the wiki
does not work since it complains about a
  "Syntax Error ($)
   Unknown option 'BreakOnFirstChance'
   syntax error"

4. I entered "cont" anyway... but winedbg seems to block there, not showing me
another prompt (until I hit Ctrl-C or run "killall Gw2.exe" from another
terminal; see below)


>From here, I'm not sure if I'm still on the right track and if the backtraces I
obtained this way might be useful at all:

5. I provoked the application freeze

6. winedbg was still blocking, so I hit Ctrl-C and got a backtrace with "bt"

7. if I "killall Gw2.exe" afterwards and winedbg>"bt" again, the backtrace
changes


Now, I'm not sure if one of the backtraces represents the actual freeze
bug/crash, or if one or both of them are just the reaction to the signal I sent
with Ctrl-C or to killing the application, respectively.

Any corrections/comments on my approach? For now, I refrained from posting the
above traces here because I don't wanna cause confusion in case they are
useless.


(PS: My apologies if these are dumb questions... I'm still new to wine
debugging stuff in general.)
