I used to be able to successfully play Pocket Tanks and Commandos on my Fedora 20 64bit system using WINE. Few days ago I finally got time to install NVIDIA Driver. After that, WINE is now not working. Whenever I start any application I get following error 

[10:09] Abhinav@localhost Pocket Tanks Deluxe $ wine pockettanks.exe 
err:winediag:xrandr12_init_modes Broken NVIDIA RandR detected, falling back to RandR 1.0. Please consider using the Nouveau driver instead.

Without NVIDIA driver, The Gnome-Shell used to flicker while animating. So I would prefer to keep the driver installed. I dont understand why it is not working correctly after graphic driver installation? Propriety driver was suppose to perform better than Nouveau driver, isn't it?

  • Have you checked what the message suggest ? Is the 32bit version of the proprietary driver also installed ?

I believe you might be able to resolve by deleting .wine dir in /home.

only you needs winetricks and:

winetricks orm=backbuffer glsl=disable

On nvidia closed driver offcourse.

  • Could you explain this more clearly? To start with, what is winetricks?

Winetricks seems to remedy the problem to execute the command:

winetricks orm=backbuffer glsl=disable

I don't know what exactly is meant by:

On nvidia closed driver offcourse.

  • He means the proprietary NVIDIA graphics card driver. There is also an open-source driver, Nouveau.

apparently the bug happens when wine try switching the resolution using XRandr extension.

so to resolve the issue you must disable or prevent wine from this behavior

go ahead and install Q4Wine from synaptic package manager and launch it

next go to Programs tab in the main window and right click on the prefix you are using by and choose Configure fake drive settings

in the Fake Drive Settings window go to Video > X11 Driver and set UseRandR to N as below

  • This question is almost 7-8 years old. In 2022, even nvidia has finally started providing their own drivers for linux. These days, Bottles is much better than Q4Wine. It has support for proton too.
