[Battlefield 2 : Bad Company] fail during the start fo game

[MrVic]

Hi every body,

I install BCBC2 on my Ubuntu 14.04 64bit with Wine1.6 and the "/home/thierry/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Electronic Arts" was created with next files :

BFBC2Game.exe d3dx11_42.dll Dist Support
BFBC2Updater.exe D3DX9_42.dll GL.ini winui.dll
binkw32.dll database.dbmanifest InstallationData.xml
D3DCompiler_42.dll dfe Output
d3dx10_42.dll dialoglogo128x128.jpg paul.dll

When I start game with "wine BFBC2Game.exe" I get next echo in the terminal :

Code: Select all

$ wine BFBC2Game.exe 
fixme:ntdll:NtQuerySystemInformation info_class SYSTEM_HANDLE_INFORMATION
fixme:ntdll:NtQueryObject Unsupported information class 3
err:rpc:I_RpcGetBuffer no binding
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  153 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
  Serial number of failed request:  246
  Current serial number in output stream:  246

Do you know where is my problem ?

Best regards

Searching the web shows that this error is often caused by the video driver for AMD/ATI video cards.

These instructions do not apply if your video card is not AMD/ATI!

1. Identify you video card with lspci | grep VGA (in a terminal).
2. Unity: Open dash and find an application named "Additional Drivers"; launch that application.
   Other: Go to System Settings > Software & Updates > Additional Drivers.
3. Select the proprietary driver that is best suited for your video card.

If it doesn't work, try other proprietary drivers.

If none works, then you might try to download the latest driver from AMD website.

• Fill in the form with your system specs, download the driver and follow install instructions from the website.

If you still get the X_GLXQueryServerString error, then it may be unrelated to the video driver.
