This would resque our old machine which is getting left behind when it comes to hardware (and it would also put fun back into computing).

By reading messages on this list, I think that I have figured out that in gnome, you should be able to find directories like media/floppy jerry@linux-8ldg:/media> dir total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 2006-08-18 20:18 floppy Since the only sub directory I have in the media directory is floppy, does this mean that I have not configured the computer correctly? I cannot get to the cd drive

Hello, there seems to be an odd behaviour regarding the CD-Rom drives in wine depending on whether you run a precompiled version (in my case a Debian package) or compile wine for yourself (same version). Background is that there seems to be a regression in wine which I wanted to debug. The regression is in a game which checks for the CD first and then shows an intro and a menu (which has

I have been trying to install several games, and all of the ones that have more than one disk fail, one way or another, at the point of changing cd's. Some (doom3) just quit [there exists an alternative plan for doom3], and others (Baldur's Gate-SoA) lock up the cd and won't let go. The only way to get the cd out is to kill the installer. I found the instructions on WineHQ, which say

Many years ago I wrote a Windows program that needs a SCSI card. It addresses the SCSI card using ASPI. Unfortunately, when I run the app under Wine, I see some errors (all beginning with 'fixme:') which suggest that ASPI isn't yet fully implemented (and as such, the app doesn't work properly).
