Wine-20010824 problems with wineinstall and loading windows DLL's
Hi
I am running Slackware Linux 8.0 with Kernel 2.4.5 and perl 5.6.1. I
have my windows partition(D:) mounted at /windows and my fat
startuppartition(C:) at /dos. Windows itself is found in /windows/windows.
I tried installing Wine-20010824 using wineinstall and these are the
problems I had:
- When wineinstall was searching for existing windows installations it
said: 'Windows was not found on your system, so I asume you want a
Wine-only installation. Am I correct?'
-> So I checked what wineinstall did to find the windows partition, it
calls wineconf, and checking wineconf I found out it only checked my
/dos partition, not the /windows partition.
fyi: in my fstab these 2 partitions are defined as this:
---
/dev/hda2 /dos vfat uid=1000,gid=100,exec,dev,suid,rw 1 1
/dev/hda5 /windows vfat uid=1000,gid=100,exec,dev,suid,rw
1 1
---
To let wineinstall do his job I edited it a bit by adding the parameters
'-windir /windows/windows -sysdir D\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM' to the call to
wineconf. Now wineinstall completed successfully (If I didn't add the
-sysdir parameter wineinstall found the windows partition but in the
~/.wine/config file it places "system" = "D:\\SYSTEM"
instead of
"D:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM". And couldn't wineisntall get the registery)
fyi2: when running wineconf I get these messages:
---
Name "main::RCS_ID" used only once: possible typo at ./wineconf line
7.
Name "main::DOS2Device" used only once: possible typo at ./wineconf
line
230.
Name "main::Device2DOS" used only once: possible typo at ./wineconf
line
227.
Name "main::DOSpathdir" used only once: possible typo at ./wineconf
line 294
WINE REGISTRY Version 2
;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config.
<snip>

Is this all a bug? Does wine expect windows to be at a C drive or is the
problem that it is just not tested with windows on a D drive?
Finaly Wine got installed like I wished and this is the ~/wine/config file:

Wine should be ready to use now, not?
So I started my first Wine app: winamp, it worked well so I tried a
bigger application. But whatever application I tried which uses other
DLL's than the standard system DLL's failed because Wine claimes not to
find the desired DLL(s), even if those DLL's are located in the same
directory as the executable or when they are installed in the
windows\system dir.
Does anybody know a solution?
