[Wine] Master of Orion 2 hangs when run in Wine 0.9.17 under Fedora Core 5
I recently installed Fedora Cora 5 (2.6.17-1.2157_FC5) on my PC, and then installed Wine (0.9.17) from the Fedora yum repository. I then installed Master of Orion II, and tried to run it. It started OK, but as soon as I moved the mouse, it seemed to hang. My keyboard and mouse stopped working, and the only way I could break out was to hit Ctrl-Alt-Del and log out. I tried this repeatedly, and it happened each time. Has anyone else tried to run MOO2 under FC5? If not, can someone suggest how I might go about debugging this problem? Thanks in advance to all who respond. Leslie

If there is a demo somewhere to download that has the same error that also makes things easier on them.

I recommend to use the dos version of moo2 (should be on most cds). Most popular emulator for dos is dosbox now. http://nekrebagh.homelinux.com/dosbox.htm siron Leslie Houk schrieb:> I recently installed Fedora Cora 5 (2.6.17-1.2157_FC5) on my PC, and > then installed Wine (0.9.17) from the Fedora yum repository.
