Wine 10.13 Released

Wine 10.13 has been released after a one-month break, introducing a Windows Gaming Input configuration tab for the Joystick Control Panel, new ECDSA_P521 and ECDH_P521 cryptographic algorithms, OpenGL WoW64 thunk generation, and expanded Windows Runtime metadata support. The update also delivers 32 bug fixes," which is more than normal given the month of time between releases," writes Phoronix's Michael Larabel. "There are fixes for Microsoft Office 365, Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express, Doom 3 BFG Edition, and a variety of other game and application fixes."

You can download and learn more about the release at WineHQ.org GitLab.

First Post! Wait, Really???

wow, slashdot really is just about dead if 2 hours late I can be "first post" (remember that!?).

Sad. And here I was hoping to see the regular linux/windows flame wars and maybe even a discussion of how usable wine is these days.

I guess I would be more excited if I hadn't abandoned Windows on my own personal devices (still have to use it via RDP at work). I think the Wine project has done an incredible thing, I just don't have any particular use for it anymore.

I should test this outâ¦

â¦on my wifeâ(TM)s Mac laptop. Iâ(TM)d be curious how well I could use that setup to run my old XP games. NHL titles, Triple Play Baseball 2003, Diablo II, Civ 3.

Since when Wine has tabs?

Have I missed something and Wine has a GUI now? No more need for buggy additional workarounds like Playonlinux or Lutris?
