Description Béla Gyebrószki 2013-11-23 09:11:27 UTC

The screen is flickering constantly when you start the game. This makes the game hardly playable.
A regression from Wine 1.7.7:

Reverting the commit fixes the problem. Terminal output doesn't contain useful information. The same commit causes a similar problem in Populous: The Beginning. Beside the flickering, PoP:TB crashes when I start a new game. Reverting the commit fixes the crash in Pop:TB.
