Hi all, I just installed wine-20050725 from source, and have a problem with warcraft 3 (patch v1.15). The install runs fine (when mounting the cdrom without the unhide option), but the game doesn't. Launchin the game with : "wine Warcraft\ III.exe -opengl" results in a popup message saying "no disc inserted" whereas the disc is actually in the CDROM drive. I saw a post on the application database relating the very same problem. I have found no solution so far... I managed to play Starcraft (legal copy), and it does work pretty well, so i assume my installation is good. Any help would be greatly appreciated : i definitely don't want to re-install Windows just to play Warcraft. Regards, Sebastien.

You have to use a nocd-Crack. Then it should start. many greetings, Lukas

I am running a 2.4.26 kernel. I grabbed a CVS snapshot yesterday and upgraded my kernel to 2.4.31, but it didn't solve the problem. I saw posts about it on the mailing lists archives, but it was a 2.6 kernel issue... Thanks in advance for your help, Seb.
