Apologies to those for whom this is a cross-post. I posted this to wine-devel before realizing this was the proper forum. Due to resource constraints (75 MHz processor, 1.2 GB hard drive, 16 MB RAM), we recently replaced Windows98 on our daughter's PC with Linux Mandrake, using the IceWM window manager. It isn't quite as flashy as Windows, but it boots beyond the startup screen, which

Dear Wine Community, I have recently installed the latest snapshot of Wine (20011108). The build and install seems to have gone fine, but I'm running into a roadblock when ever I try to install a windows application. I get as far as where the actual install should start (after answering the various questions about files to install, where to install, etc), then I get a brief flash, like a

Well, Now that I've made it through the actual install, I figured I'ld take Baldur's Gate for a spin. The main screeen, where you select to play the game, change the configuration, etc, comes up fine.

I've managed to install using setup.exe, but when I go to play the game, I get an error message telling me to insert CD #1, even though CD #1 is in the CD-ROM tray and mounted. Any clues as to why I would be getting this message, how to convince the game that the CD is actually in the CD-ROM drive, or how to

I have recently noticed an unusual side-effect of running Wine. When I first start up my system, /proc/meminfo reports MemTotal as 256892 kb. After running Wine for awhile, /proc/meminfo reports MemTotal as 32680 kb. The system performs as if it only had 32 MB of RAM. A reboot of the system resets total memory to the proper value. My question is: 1) Has anybody else encountered this? 2)

Howdy Folks, I'm trying to install Baldur's Gate II on a windowsless Wine configuration and not having much luck. When I run Setup.exe from /cdrom, I get the Baldur's Gate II splash screen, the progress bar indicating that InstallShield is preparing to install Baldur's Gate II - Shadow of Amn and a message box stating 'Error installing iKernel.exe: (0x1400)'.
