Description Jim Wilson 2006-12-01 20:48:27 UTC 
Description of problem:
 Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000000 at address (nil)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 wine-0.9.25-1.fc6

How reproducible: run the script, /usr/bin/winecfg


Steps to Reproduce:
1. In X, start a terminal of some sort
2. At the prompt, type "winecfg"
3. Press Enter
  
Actual results:
  See attached BDA (Bomb Damage Assessment).

Expected results:
  Beats me.  I've never run this script.  I used to illustrate the problem
because it's included in the package.  The same explosion occurs when I try to
run any .exe from wine.

verified on i386... will look into it
Comment 3 Jim Wilson 2006-12-15 13:20:46 UTC 
Update:  It was a house-of-cards effect.  I was using the bug-infested
propietary NVidia driver.  The bugs have apparently been shifted slightly in the
latest version (1.09631) so that WINE somehow now avoids stepping on them.

Thanks for looking into this.
