Starcraft II's beta has one of the licenses where you must read the entire license before clicking agree. On windows 7, it makes you do so. On wine, just moving the mouse over the window activates the 'agree' button. Native ie6 works around it.

Comment 1 Nicky 2010-03-24 15:04:56 UTC

Isn't that actual improvement over windows. I mean... honestly... No one reads the license, someone may scroll it down and skim through it but never read.
That bug report made my day. Like:
"Wine works too good, make it suck like windows"

Comment 2 Austin English 2010-03-24 15:08:47 UTC

It's a difference in implementation, therefore a bug in wine.

Even though it's arguably easier/better in this case, the same 'feature' may break a different application.

Comment 3 Dan Kegel 2010-04-11 18:54:47 UTC

For me, the license screen doesn't show the license at all without ie6.

Hm, works fine here in wine-1.1.42-182-g8f77dd8. Are you using git?

Comment 5 Dan Kegel 2010-04-11 20:30:10 UTC

Yes, I'm using the same version as you.
For some reason, I'm seeing this problem on my i7 at home, but not on the gentoo box at work.

I've seen references to other people not seeing the license agreement in appdb,
too.

(Incidentally, when builtin ie6 does work, I get a bunch of empty
messageboxes during the starcraft 2 autoupdate.  That's another problem
worked around by native ie6.)

Right, that's bug 22092.

Comment 7 Dan Kegel 2010-04-21 20:14:02 UTC

Filed bug 22452 for the 'license screen is blank without ie6 on fast machines'
problem.

Comment 8 Jerome Leclanche 2011-06-09 18:09:15 UTC

This affects WoW, and afaik is a regression (dating back to probably early wine-1.0). But trying to run a regression test will probably land you in bug 13321.

Comment 9 Ken Sharp 2013-08-04 10:54:55 UTC

Is this still an issue in latest git?

The current demo installer on wine-1.7.0 has the same issue, but ie6 no longer fixes it. I don't have windows available to check if the installer changed or not.

Comment 11 snejjj 2014-01-19 03:17:19 UTC

seems like it is fixed for me in wine 1.6.1.
The installer works as expected, requiring to scroll all the way down.

Comment 12 Anastasius Focht 2014-03-01 07:50:18 UTC

Hello folks,

same as comment #11 - can't reproduce this with clean WINEPREFIX, no overrides.
Scrolling the EULA to the end enables the 'agree/accept' button.

Resolving 'fixed'.

$ wine --version
wine-1.7.13-118-g0eb6265

Comment 13 Alexandre Julliard 2014-03-07 14:13:04 UTC

Closing bugs fixed in 1.7.14.
