My wife has a Asus Eee (running the original Xandros Linux), on which she wants to run the Rosetta Stone language self-learning software. Naturally, we have it in a Windows-version, so I installed Wine, copied the files on the CD-ROM to a USB memory stick, ran the installer under Wine, and everything worked, to my surprise, without more than a few glitches and re-tries. So the program itself

Heya! I'm using Gentoo Linux, kernel 2.6.30.2, wine 1.1.26. Installing C&C gold was possible, playing also. But only playing direct after Installation. I then saved my game, everythings perfect. On restarting, I just get a blank screen, don't know why. Output: Code: fixme:dsalsa:IDsDriverBufferImpl_SetVolumePan (0x14ed30,0x14ec68): stub fixme:d3d_caps:IWineD3DImpl_FillGLCaps

Trying to install Madden 08 from an dvd iso when I run the .exe installer wine says "Please insert CD/DVD 1 in drive K:". I tried to add the path on drive K: where the mounted iso is with winecfg but the message is still there. Can't make game/wine to find the mounted iso.

Hello, I have installed C&C: Red Alert 2 in Ubuntu. Now I want to play in a network. I have already put the wsock32.dll [1] into the game directory and have set up an overwrite rule for wsock32 in winecfg. It should replace the IPX protocol with UDP protocol. Now there is a network card shown in the settings [2] and the network menu opens ingame now. I have set up Red Alert 2 on different

Ok, i'm terrible with computers, so i would like an explanation in simple terms. So I'm trying to play a game using Wine, I've installed the game, but when i click play, a box pops up that says "No CD-ROM drive found" I would like to know how to fix this problem.

Background: Red Alert / Red Alert II / C&C / Tiberium Sun uses IPX for LAN play. According to AppDB, this works, at least for Red Alert II (Orginal RA is not on the first page of Google results...), but it requires Wine to be run as root. Since I do not have IPX installed and I'm not normally in a mood to recompile my kernel, and the Windows users that I want to play against do want to

I am running Arch linux on my laptop and I installed wine a while back to check if one application I use would work with it or not. Well I couldnt get it running since it apparently uses MS .NET framework which doesnt seem to work very well with wine. But to the issue at hand. Today I decided to try off another application, well okay a game actually, and I ran winecfg as normal user to re-make

I am new to linux, and new to wine, and think I may have actually stepped a little out of my depth by jumping into it without a little more coding/programming experience. I am running Kubuntu Hardy, and have encountered a serious problem with wine 1.1.7, in that it doesn't want to function. If I click on exe files, it will open a tab on the taskbar, show activity, then kill the tab.

But when I look in my drives menu, there is already one labeled c. Why can't

Hello, I'm under Ubuntu - Jaunty Jackalope. While installing 3 different games under Wine (Medieval II - Total War, Patrician III : Rise of the Hanse and Anno 1503), the installation went smoothly but the same problem of the game asking to insert an already inserted CD occured. By searching the web, it appeared that it was a cd protection issue, so I found no-cd patches and applied them.

Hello, I installed wine via 'yum install wine' from my command prompt on a new install of Fedora Core 5 (everything was updated via yum before I attempted this), and everything went well with that. Then, when I tried to install a game that I saw was in gold status on the apps db, it went through a list of fonts and installed them or something, but it wont install the game. The CD is

I had played COD1 and JKA under wine in gentoo and slackware for years but it seems something has changed in how wine does it's cd drive stuff. I can mount and install either with the installer included with the game with either the loki installer or the normal

Correctly installed Marvel Ultimate Alliance, already present in appdb as gold. The installer complained that it could not install directx. As specified in appDB I added d3dx9_36.dll to system32. When I run the application it says: "DirectX9.0c is not installed on this computer. Install it and try again." I tried to play with libraries in winecfg but without luck. I'm currently using

Hello list, Although i read posts related to cdrom access with wine in the forum and did configure wine the way it is told, i still cannot reach a cdrom image with wine-1.0.1. However, i could with older versions of wine.
