Beta Testing / BT1.11: Help -> About (under wine)
July 11, 2011, 08:46:40 AM
Hello Fred,

In the help->about screen, when it writes and reach the right side of the box, the screen is flickering.
You should force a carriage return in the list of testers... Its' at that point that the screen do that.
Also, when you read it a seconde time, all the screen is not totally cleared

PS: I noticed you added me :D thx ;)

Hi Fred,

As the subject told, the 1.10 is crashing sometimes under wine, when switching between the different views...
I wanted to send you the dump file by mail (as it was shown in the error box), but I can't find it... :-(

Beta Testing / BT 1.10: Unhandled exception
June 30, 2011, 07:28:00 PM
Hi Fred,

I just installed the 1.10. And with that one, I've an "unhandled exception" when I exit from BT (right click on the icon from the taskbar and clicked on the exit option)...
It's not a real problem as BT is working nice but... Never good anyway :-)

Also, I noticed you asked if we are using windows or wine under linux at the first start... Strange to ask that as wine should be "transparent" to the application...
There is not a way to simply avoid using certain function call if they don't exist or just write code in a different way who is natively compatible in both windows and wine ?
I read a topic about this quite interesting: http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?p=25906&sid=480c18ed9cad85e0f69bc386c736a2af

The new buttons in the notices part (the blue + - and the red cross), do nothing.
Also every time firefox is started by BT (from menus or by clicking on a link), it is frozen and take a very high load (need to kill it).

Questions / Boinctasks under linux (wine)
June 12, 2011, 04:43:35 PM
Hi,

Is someone already tried to run boinctasks under linux (with wine) ? I'm trying to do so, but I get the following error:

QuoteFatal error, missing file: BoincTasks_ENU.btlang
Try installing BoincTasks again.

I tried te reinstall it many times and also tested some workarounds but all without success...
I also searched internet where I found people running it under wine without problems...

Someone have an idea of how to solve this ? I'm running under CentOS 5.5 with wine v1.2.3

Thanks in advance for your help.
David.
