I'm posting this message because I discovered that there appear to be serious video conflicts between some games running in wine, and the kde desktop. Specifically, I have been unable to get "The Witcher Enhanced Edition" to run without severely distorted video. I have both gnome and kde desktops on my system (kUbuntu jaunty-9.04). Today I tried running the game in gnome, and was

I'm on Ubuntu 11.04 and Wine 1.3.20. I've been trying to run The Witcher 2 but with no success. I've installed vcrun2010 with winetricks and downloaded mfcu100.dll (to system32) because that's what showed up to be missing when runnig game from terminal. Now all I get is this message: fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation (nil) 1 (nil) 0 and I have no clue what it means. I have the

I have a game (The Witcher Enhanced) that worked in 1.1.24, but does not in .25 or .26. It dies on startup with a black screen, and CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE (killing the X server) appears to be the only escape. In addition, attempting to run in with .26 makes changes in the .wine directory I use for the game, such that the only way to get it to run in .24 again is to reload the .wine directory from

I had already looked at bug # 27298 (The Witcher 2 Slow Performance on any setting.) as well as http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=23504&iTestingId=64212 My problem is it not laucher is not even starting which is different from the performance problem.

Since I switched to Gentoo Linux, I have had multiple issues of DX9 games crashing after about 15-20 minutes of playing because of "out of memory" issues. I do not recall having so many problems with that when I was running Wine under Ubuntu. My config: Q6600 4 GB Ram Nvidia 8800GT Gentoo X64 Latest wine-git as of Feb 8 2009 I have reported one of them as a bug:

I know I have seen posts recently of people trying to get this game to run through wine and did not know if the DRM on the game was a part of the issues they were running into. I'm sending this through just in case it helps: "A little over a week after its release, /The Witcher 2/ is getting its first patch, and with it all versions of the game will now be DRM free...With version

Before I posted a bug report for the Witcher 1, I thought I'd ask on the forum if anyone else was having trouble with Witcher 1 save files. Essentially the problem lies in that quests are not being saved to files so that if I save and try to reload the game, the quest info+progress will have disappeared. This only cropped up at Chapter 3. One other person encountered this in chapter 2.

As most Wine users probably know, running applications using Wine won't (in most cases) give you the same performance as running the application in native Windows. From my experience this is especially true when it comes to applications that make use of Direct3D, and I suppose the performance drop is (at least in part) due to the translation of Direct3D to OpenGL in Wine. Now, this got me

Here's my main reply: http://pastebin.com/3zq1r9pF . Basically I say that two tools, WhatChanged and RegShot, might not only help this situation out, but help get other programs to work in WINE. Also, I have links to other places in there and explain a little about SecuROM and why you need the disc (or emulate a disc) to START the game, but you can take it out later. Myth 11 and WINE's

An issue has appeared in wine-1.1.38 while playing The Witcher. Many of the plants that should appear green are now bright orange. Reverting to 1.1.37 or earlier fixes the problem. This is kubuntu-9.10 64-bit system with NVIDIA 190.53 and 195.36.03 (tried both, same problem) drivers. Compositing disabled. The game is otherwise playable. Is there some configuration setting that has changed with

Hi I've just built a new Ubuntu 9.04 system on an Asus P5Q-EM board (intel G45/X4500) with E8400 Core Duo 2 chip.
