OpenGL and NVidia to run under Wine

[alain.roger]

Hi,

I'm trying to use NVidia card from my laptop under wine. First, I checked glxinfo -B:

Code: Select all

name of display: :0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
Memory info (GL_NVX_gpu_memory_info):
    Dedicated video memory: 1536 MB
    Total available memory: 1536 MB
    Currently available dedicated video memory: 722 MB
OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce GTX 460M/PCIe/SSE2
OpenGL core profile version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 390.138
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 4.60 NVIDIA
OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile

OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 390.138
OpenGL shading language version string: 4.60 NVIDIA
OpenGL context flags: (none)
OpenGL profile mask: (none)

OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.2 NVIDIA 390.138
OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.20

However, when i run the windows app i get the following error:
0249:err:winediag:xrandr12_init_modes Broken NVIDIA RandR detected, falling back to RandR 1.0. Please consider using the Nouveau driver instead.

i also setup : winetricks orm=backbuffer glsl=disable
but without any help. It is not faster and still the background of window is black for a while before to be painted to standard app color.

How could i solve it ?
thx

Do you have an NVIDIA Optimus/ PRIME/ multi-GPU laptop?

This doesn't always have to be a problem

when i run the windows app
..
How could i solve it ?

Can we download and test this application?
Which Wine version do you use?

Using the legacy Nvidia may be an issue, I'm not certain of this however...

If you remove these obsolete overrides and could retest, generating a Wine terminal log, using something like:

Code: Select all

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/???
WINEDEBUG=+wgl,+tid wine ???.exe &>~/wine_terminal_log.txt

So change directory to game executable. Launch the game executable directly with Wine.
Obviously you need to determine what the ??? paths should be, for your game (the example above assumes you are using the default WINEPREFIX path).

See: WineHQ FAQ for more information on how to run applications with Wine and how to obtain a terminal log (if you aren't already familiar with this process!)

Also you'd want to ensure that you have an up-to-date version of Wine or Wine Staging, currently version: 6.0-rc2.

I'm testing Photoshop 2015 actually, but this issue (err:winediag:xrandr12_init_modes Broken NVIDIA RandR detected, falling back to RandR 1.0. Please consider using the Nouveau driver instead.) i have also with others windows applications and games. Basically it would be great to be able to use the perfomance of the video card and not a virtual card with limited performance.

I use wine-5.0.3

You probably want to take a look at: WineHQ AppDB: Graphics Editing / Adobe Photoshop / CC 2015 (16.0).

E.g.

If you're facing a black canvas, it helped me to disable the option: "Use Graphics Processor" under Edit > Performance

I believe Photoshop uses CUDA, for GPU acceleration, which isn't supported under Wine.
