Hi, For the past 3 months I have been trying to get wine working well, but have hit several obstacles. I am on a Mac 10.5.7, using X11 2.3.3.2 from Xquartz, and using Kroneberg's Darwine builds. The issues: I can't seem to get OpenGL working or DirectX. I sometimes have problems where I launch an exe, and the program runs as if it cannot "see" any other files in the same folder.

I am trying to use darwine 1.1.7 on 10.5.5 and am having issues. I downloaded the package from thisismyinter.net and is doesn't run anything, including the sample winelib applications. However, when I use the version from http://www.kronenberg.org/darwine/ it runs just fine. I have XQuartz 2.3.1 as well. This started recently, I can't remember what did it. Here is a link to the output when

Just completed a fresh install of Darwine 1.0b and Xquartz to fix some application issues and discovered when I downloaded and installed the Windows version of Firefox I get the following series of errors. This is a partial log since the errors just continue as long as Firefox is open until either WineHelper crashes or Firefox crashes. I have manually downloaded Flash from the adobe site, it

Hi all I'm trying to play the game "BOH" (http://www.bohthegame.com/) on OS X using Darwine. I downloaded 1.1.19 and dragged the Darwine folder to /Applications. Then I opened the BOH installer using WineHelper and installed the game. For some reason it put the installed files inside the WineHelper application bundle. When I tried to open the game's executable using WineHelper,

Hi all, There's a Windows application I've been running (called "WinBUGS.exe") on an intel Mac OS X (ver. 10.5.5) using both Darwine and CrossOver Pro. My application runs fine under Darwine and also under CrossOver. However, in spite of being able to run these applications using either platform from the command line, I still cannot pass arguments to the application. What I want

I've installed darwine 1.1.9 on my mac. I've read all of the tutorials and forums that I could find but I'm still not able to solve my problem. I imagine I must be missing something that's so obvious that it doesn't even make its way into a tutorial. I can't run programs. If I start winehelper and try to run a program (say regedit.exe) I get the errors at the end of

Hello, I have been busy working away at getting Darwine to run on OS X with no luck... I tried uninstalling and reinstalling many times, but I was continually getting gdi32.dll errors. This guide was tested on OS X Leopard 1.5.6. The following guide is how I set it up. The steps may vary slightly for you. Be sure to read this whole thread before actually trying some of the things listed here,

Hey, I'm running Wine 1.1 on OS-X Leopard, and am trying to figure out how to tell Finder to open all files with a .exe extension to open with Wine. The only way I can think of is to create a new .app folder with just enough information to link to the actual Wine executable. I took apart the .app package of jEdit and replaced all references to jEdit with ones for Wine, then symlinked the

I tried installing wine using MacPorts, and this is what happened: Code: ryan-vecas-macbook-pro:~ rveca$ sudo port install wine Password: ---> Configuring expat Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_textproc_expat/work/expat-2.0.1"

Thanks for working on it regardless, all these compiling issues are beyond most of us. Everything is "easy" or "manageable" to fix as long as you know how! I don't know if it's available via Macports, but I imagine Darwine is rather tweaked for the Mac beyond merely being a straight port, I don't know if Macports would throw up similar compiler issues. I received

So I have an Intel Mac and I'd like to run a couple Windows apps on it. I looked in the Mac OSX working programs wiki, but it doesn't have any of the programs I want to use listed. I checked AppDB, but it doesn't have Mac tests for any of them listed either. I was wondering if anyone has had experiences with MS Office 2003 or 2007 or Steam on Mac OSX (Leopard) with Wine. Thanks.

Hey all, I'm very new to Wine, but I was very excited about the potential behind it, so I tried installing the 2.2.3 X11 XQuartz package from http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/Releases and kronenberg.org/darwine 's stable 1.0 version of Darwine on my Macbook that is running Leopard 10.5.3. The installs were easy, but I'm having some difficulty now with actually getting some

Hello, Core question: How do I tell files with a given suffix to open an .exe app on the Mac so they'll run it via Darwine? I just successfully installed Darwine and then made a desktop alias to the Avaya Voice Mail Player by showing all hidden files in the Finder, using Make Alias, and copying that alias to the desktop. This Avaya windows app plays .lvp audio voicemail files. How can I

Download the Darwine Wine program and installed x11 on my mac. I have os X 10.4.11 When I try to run a windows program with Wine I get this message. Wine cannot find the FreeType font library. To enable Wine to use TrueType fonts please install a version of FreeType greater than or equal to 2.0.5. http://www.freetype.org Wine cannot find the FreeType font library. To enable Wine to use

Hey guys, I was curious about something. When Wine installs a program, that creates a shortcut after installation, it is usually placed on the desktop (as it would in Windows). So how I can create the same type of shortcut which will use the .exe's inbuilt icon; as Wine does? I know how to create a shortcut but i'd manually need to search for a .png file to use as that shortcuts icon.

I was trying to develop user mode windows on base of wine. I was linking my x86 simulator with wine so that I can have a JAVA like virtual windows environment. the didderence is JVM understands jasva byte code, my virtual windows understands x86 instructions. I knew darwine was going to do the same thing. the difference is darwine depends on qemu. I don't use qemu. my questions: why

Hey guys I got a ibook g4, I installed darwine, I tried running MSN Messenger 7.0 "it says it works" and it doesn't work I just get an error saying it didn't worry and has closed. I tried utorrent, same deal, then I went to the darwine folder and went into applications and tried clocks.exe and that didn't work either. Help me out? Thanks

I recently tried to submit application feedback for the Darwin port of Wine. My feedback was rejected because Darwine is not Wine. But is this really the case? If this port of Wine to Darwin was simply called The Darwin Port of Wine, would it have been rejected? I don't think it would have been. Just because the Darwin developers have made a clever alias for this particular port, it

1) darwine helps linux with enough applications on none-x86 machines. user can drop windows/x86 away. it seems dar wine is a threat. 2) when linux people are used to windows applications on those machines. microsoft claims to compile vista to those machines. microsoft gets the world of those machines . darwine helps microsoft without any thanks from bill gates. what will happen next?
