Description Michael Monreal 2010-09-07 09:58:30 UTC
I played some Left 4 Dead in wine and had it crash a number of times. The game would run with sound but I was not able to complete a mission at all because it always crashes after about 10-20 minutes.

I tested various sound setups:

1:) using wine's (unofficial) PulseAudio driver:
---
Assertion 'b' failed at pulsecore/memblock.c:451, function pa_memblock_acquire(). Aborting.
wine: Assertion failed at address 0x68000832 (thread 0041), starting debugger...
err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0x682e9ff4
Assertion 'pthread_mutex_lock(&m->mutex) == 0' failed at pulsecore/mutex-posix.c:90, function pa_mutex_lock(). Aborting.
---

2.) using wine's ALSA driver and PulseAudio running (alsa-plugins-pulseaudio installed, so PulseAudio is used):
---
mmap() failed: Cannot allocate memory
mmap() failed: Cannot allocate memory
Assertion 'b' failed at pulsecore/memblock.c:451, function pa_memblock_acquire(). Aborting.
wine: Assertion failed at address 0x68000832 (thread 0047), starting debugger...
wine: Unhandled stack overflow at address 0x6be909a8 (thread 0046), starting debugger...
err:seh:setup_exception_record stack overflow 828 bytes in thread 0046 eip 680288c0 esp 00240ff4 stack 0x240000-0x241000-0x340000
Assertion 'pthread_mutex_lock(&m->mutex) == 0' failed at pulsecore/mutex-posix.c:90, function pa_mutex_lock(). Aborting.
---

3.) using wine's ALSA driver after stopping PulseAudio and removing alsa-plugins-pulseaudio: no crashes.

It looks like PulseAudio is crashing and taking down the game with it? I can reproduce the described behavior. Not sure if/how I can give more information.

Using the following packages:

pulseaudio-libs-devel-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686
pulseaudio-utils-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686
pulseaudio-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686
pulseaudio-libs-zeroconf-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686
pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.22-1.fc13.i686
pulseaudio-libs-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686
pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686
pulseaudio-libs-glib2-0.9.21-6.fc13.i686

Comment 1 Bug Zapper 2011-05-31 14:15:08 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 13.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '13'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2011-06-28 13:17:15 UTC
Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
