Hi everybody, I know this problem have been posted a few times, but that one is a bit different and seems to be still unresolved. I use Wine 1.0 on my laptop with 2 operating systems (Slamd64 Linux and MS Windows XP). When I play StarCraft on Battlenet under Windows it's all perfect, but when I run it with wine - there are huge lags which make the game unplayable. Computer is conected by a

Hello list and FreeBSD maintainer, I -really- appreciate the fact that the major threading issues with FreeBSD and WINE have been resolved. I'd hate to see FreeBSD lose an application with such great potential. Anyway, I've recently taken an interest in WINE for use with gaming on FreeBSD (once again). I managed to get StarCraft installed with it and running. However, there's a

Hi everyone, I have been experiencing a latency problem in Starcraft and found it is related in good part to the nice level I was giving to wine. The game is very choppy when ran with nice -20. I also find it choppy at normal priority. It seems to run well at -15 and higher (towards 0). That's good news. I've been playing quite happily since. I still find the cursor slightly sluggish. I

Hello! I'm considering to get Linux on my computer, and do you guys think it would be reasonable easy to start up skyrim at the release date without TOO much work? Does starcraft 2 run easily? Oblivion? and potentially DoTA2? I know it might be difficult to answer about the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, but since I think you guys know your sh***. I thought you'd might have an idea :) Best

Greetings Gentlefolk, It's a long time since I 'cvs updated' my wine sources. I did that last night, and after rebuilding I was left with three questions. My experience was that to run an 8-bit windoze app, I had to run wine under an X server that was running in 8bpp. This time, I forgot to switch to an 8-bit X, and to my amazement, the app came up under 16 bpp. Way Cool! q1) An

I know, Starcraft has been covered much, but I still cannot make starcraft complete its installation. The installation halts while adding shortcuts to the start menu. As someone (Ove I believe) mentioned, Starcraft adds certain registry keys after creating shortcuts, requiring the installation to continue. I have modified wineshelllink in order to gain some insight: #!/bin/sh echo "$@"

crossposted to wine-dev, and wine-users Hi, I've done some more tests, and i found that when i run winedbg starcraft and wine starcraft and then again winedbg starcraft etc. It works, but always following this pattern: <boot my box> winedbg starcraft :all runs perfectly wine starcraft: all video choppy winedbg starcraft :all runs perfectly winedbg starcraft: all video choppy wine

I'm having a little trouble with trying to install newer versions of Starcraft (updates or Brood War) on a win-free Wine installation. I can run the installer off the original Starcraft CD, and it puts all of the files in the right place, adds a couple registry entries, and then chokes on creating the entries in the Start Menu. Still, I can kill the process at that point, and I have a usable

Hi all, i have run starcraft from the debugger, and it's fast. (Well, about as fast as win98 on a P-60) I have run it from wine, and it's slow (about a 468-33) The real machine i runt it from is a celeron 416, 160 MB ram, geforce 2 mx400 PCI I *finaly* discovered i could get a trace from it by using winedbg -debugmsg i.e. ONE dash. I run a diff on both files, and i was surprized to

I got Starcraft and Warcraft 3 working without a CD Crack using wine. The trick is a link in the ~/.wine/dosdevices directory to your mounted CD-Rom directory with the name: "d:" for example if you starcraft CD is mounted in /media/STARCRAFT then enter the following commands: cd ~/.wine/dosdevices ln -s /media/STARCRAFT d: Don't connect the the Battle.net. Starcraft will crash

Hi, I have discovered i can run starcraft at (almost) full speed on my system. This only works one time, directly after reboot. When tried a second time it's all choppy again. My guess is there're some stale wine processes after the first attempt. When i reboot and start wine instead of winedebug the game video performance is choppy. When i start the game with winedbg after that The

I'm sorry if this is a re-post - I switched news servers and it's not showing up on the new one. Here goes: I'm trying to run Starcraft fullscreen using xinit: xinit /usr/bin/wine ./starcraft.exe -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X :1 -screen Starcraft This runs SC in full-screen mode, no window manager, a separate X server, DGA-enabled, the whole 9 yards. Starcraft starts and looks great.

I have used Starcraft under wine for a long time, and I have just learned to put up with random crashes. The only version of wine I have gotten to work is ancient (991212)! I have tried more recent versions, but I haven't been able to get them running at all. Is there a wine that doesn't crash randomly running starcraft? What wine do you use for starcraft? (BTW, there seems to be a

Ok... here's my big problem with the nVidia drivers. Ever since I upgraded to 0.9-6 DGA mode with Starcraft has been broken!, and now with the 0.9-767 drivers Starcraft has refused to work AT ALL. If I replace the drivers back to the 0.9-5 (which are dreadfully unstable with SMP) Starcraft works fine. Any resolution, any color depth. With 0.9-6 I have to run Starcraft at 8-bit depth, else

Allright, I'm at my wits end here. About 6 months ago I had starcraft working perfectly under wine. Couldn't tell the difference between it and running natively under windows. Anyway, between now and then I've reinstalled and updated drivers, etc and I can't get wine to work for the life of me (Recent version too) When I had it working I was using a script to start a second X

Information you may need: my distro is Linux Mint 12 Gnome I am not dual booting with windows, I only have linux on this computer Alright so the description for this problem is quite lengthy. Basically I set out to do something very simple in Linux. I wanted to install wine to be able to run starcraft 2. So the first thing I did was go to software manager. The latest version of wine I could have

Hey everybody, I tried Googling specific problems with this but could not find any. I was working under wine1.3.4 when Starcraft II was in 1.1.1, but after successfully installing the patch 1.1.2 (for Starcraft II that is), I am unable to start the game, and it officially complains about DirectX not being installed. However, that's not true as we all know... The terminal output is as follows:

First let me say that I am not subscribed to the list, so please send me a copy of any replies. I have been using Shorewall for years as the firewall for my LAN. It has been awhile since I played Starcraft and hosted games. Back then I was using the 2.2 kernel with the loose_udp patch and no firewall. All worked fine. I stopped playing Starcraft a while back and later upgraded my kernel to 2.6
