#
# CHANGELOG
# [Dadu042] (2020-08-12 14-00)
#   Initial script.
#
# KNOWN ISSUES :
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4: the default skin GUI is poor. Workaround: change it in the tab Skin ('General' -> 'OsThemes'). Tried: scritp should edit registry (does not work...).
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4, 5.0.1, 5.13: network seems to fail to connect: 'err:wininet:open_http_connection create_netconn failed: 12029'. Tried: Wininet,  open port number (random) 16967, crypt32, winhttp.
#               (same issue with Wine 2.22 and 3.0.3)
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4: network seems to fail to connect: 'err:hnetcfg:get_typeinfo GetTypeInfoOfGuid({04244c8d-e483-fff0-71fc-5589e5575653}) failed: 8002802b'
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4: network seems to fail to connect. Tried OS win7 -> winxp -> win98 (now some chatrooms does appears in 'Chat', but the status in the titlebar is still '<Connecting>').
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4, 4.21: playing radio does not work (no sound, ':fixme:msacm:PCM_StreamOpen Unsupported source bit depth: 32').
#
#
# KNOWN ISSUES (FIXED):
#  - Wine amd64 5.0.1: X

# CHANGELOG
# [Dadu042] (2020-08-12 14-00)
#   Initial script.
#
# KNOWN ISSUES :
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4: the default skin GUI is poor. Workaround: change it in the tab Skin ('General' -> 'OsThemes'). Tried: scritp should edit registry (does not work...).
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4, 5.0.1, 5.13: network seems to fail to connect: 'err:wininet:open_http_connection create_netconn failed: 12029'. Tried: Wininet,  open port number (random) 16967, crypt32, winhttp.
#               (same issue with Wine 2.22 and 3.0.3)
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4: network seems to fail to connect: 'err:hnetcfg:get_typeinfo GetTypeInfoOfGuid({04244c8d-e483-fff0-71fc-5589e5575653}) failed: 8002802b'
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4: network seems to fail to connect. Tried OS win7 -> winxp -> win98 (now some chatrooms does appears in 'Chat', but the status in the titlebar is still '<Connecting>').
#  - Wine x86 4.0.4, 4.21: playing radio does not work (no sound, ':fixme:msacm:PCM_StreamOpen Unsupported source bit depth: 32').
#
#
# KNOWN ISSUES (FIXED):
#  - Wine amd64 5.0.1: X
