I just tried to install an ancient detective-type RPG ( I am not up with the classifications.) (a) It offered to install DirectX. Since Wine has its own DirectX, I ignored that. (b) The game failed to run because (according to the message box) it couldn't find DirectDraw. This showed as a Fixme in the terminal, while the error message was to do with the display settings - there was no mode

On trying to install Dragon Naturally Speaking 7 from a CD under Wine, I get the following errors: wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000001 at address 0xb7e549bb (thread 0009), starting debugger...

Running my jigsaw program, BigJig, under Wine-0.9.17, the screen looks like it did under early versions (0.9.12 and before), and all the jigsaw selection thumbnails have gone. This has been the case since version 0.9.15. I recall that I fixed the layout by installing fonts - something about the size of the fonts set the size of the buttons. I am running Sidenet, which links to the Linux fonts.

I am running Wine 0.9.14. A satellite tracking program, Orbitron, disappears into the background whenever it should just minimize. How can I get it to the foreground again? It is invisible, but I can hear progress tones in the speaker. Doug L. -- For there was never yet philosopher That could endure the toothache patiently. - Shakespeare (Much Ado About Nothing).

I have just had a recurring hardware problem with my graphics card, a modern NVidia one with Mandriva's driver. I suspect that it is dust getting into the socket. It set itself up in framebuffer mode. Anyway, it is now working, and seems to be behaving normally, except... All my apps under Wine still work fine except the one that matters, the jigsaw program.

Running Orbitron, it was O.K. for a while, now in a terminal, I get: fixme:winsock:convert_sockopt Unknown SOL_SOCKET optname 0xff7f err:winsock:WS_setsockopt Invalid level (1) or optname (65407) AFAIK, the only difference in my setup between last time and now is to install ddclient.

I use Wine only to run BigJig (http://www.lenagames.com/bigjig/). Under Wine 0.9.12 most things work. I can't get graphics for the types of pieces, only smudges of colour, and I can't start a jigsaw from the downloaded file. A previous Answer Man on this list (reln?) said that he had it working fully, but didn't say what settings he had used. Are there particular DLLs I should try?
