            Bug ID: 44479
           Summary: Battle.net "Failed to create a graphics context. "
           Product: Wine
           Version: 2.21
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

      Distribution: ---

As of today, battle-net doesn't work anymore. I believe the app just updated.

After logging in, the app window comes up all black, and a few seconds later
halts with the following error:

"Failed to create a graphics context. "
https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/12706

Curiously that Blizz support page even says "Note: This error is also occurring
with some Linux-based installations using WINE." but does not say anything
else.


I tried several things that helped Windows users having the "Failed to create a
graphics context." error in the past, as well as some Wine related suggestions.

- Tried setting QT_ANGLE_PLATFORM to "warp"
- Ensured my nVidia drivers and Wine are up to date
- Ensured I have 32 bit packages for nVidia
- Disabled browser acceleration
- Tried using both Windows' DX11 dlls as well as Wine's built in ones


I have noticed the following in console:

err:ntdll:NtQueryInformationToken Unhandled Token Information class 24!

err:wgl:X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo  couldn't initialize OpenGL, expect
problems


Arch Linux
KDE 5
Wine 2.21 Staging


Posted to Blizz forums too, just in case:
