Windowed mode uses XFree86-VidModeExtension?

[BobOmb0]

I want to play TrackManiaNationsForever

Code: Select all

$ winetricks tmnationsforever

it does run locally in windowed mode

Code: Select all

$ wine ./TmForeverLauncher.exe

now i want to run it with VirtualGL (from a remote computer)

Code: Select all

$ vglrun wine ./TmForeverLauncher.exe

Is wine trying to use XFree86-VidModeExtension and XF86VidModeSetGammaRamp?
If it is wine, is there a way to disable that?
Does windowed mode need to use VidMode?

You could try disabling the Wine xvid extension, using the Wine registry key: UseXVidMode="N"
Same goes for xrandr (which could also cause issues, with remote game-play): UseXRandR="N"
See: WineHQ Wiki: Useful Registry Keys.

Neither extension are essential.
Disabling xrandr disables any (xrandr-based) graphics mode changes.
Disabling xvid disable any gamma changes - I'm not sure it handles much else.

Thank you so much, other Bob! It's really working! I can play TMNF via VirtualGL now
