After downloading the first two Grand Theft Auto games from the Rockstar Classics website, and installing the first game I received this error: > MGL Fatal Error! > Error 268.473 > Cannot find a suitable display mode. After a bit of searching, I believe that this is a problem with running the game under Wine, and not with my PC. Then, although I probably should have checked first, I

Hello everyone, I have just discovered wine and have to try it, but I am running into problems that I can't google my way out of. I installed wine-1.1.12 using yum on my quad cpu (Nvidia 9500gt, usb qwerty keyboard and mouse) running fedora10 (2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.x86_64) and as a test, I decided to use GTA2 (download). After the install, I copied

So I downloaded Wine (prebuilt binary for Mac OS X) on my Windows desktop and moved it via flash drive to my Mac OS X laptop (Intel). I ran the Wine installer on the laptop and boom it was complete. Then I inserted the Mafia CD into the slot and tried running the setup.exe file. After getting an error message, I tried four more times and no success. I get the same error messages. Sorry for my

Hello, first of all: I used Google and the internal search of the forum. And no, I did not find a solution except using Wine 1.2.2 instead. When starting GTA: San Andreas (no mods) it shows the intro (The NVidia Logo, The EAX Logo, The Rockstar Logo, The Rockstar North Logo, The Intro movie) and then crashes and "encounters a serious Problem". None of the solutions on the net helped

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,

I'm currently running Mac OS X 10.6.4 Snow Leopard. I recently installed Darwine, and then installed a new program, Bowl Bound College Football. Even installed the patch afterwards. So far, so good. Now my problem, is that this program creates an export file to send to a league commissioner, that they can then import. I can't find the file path in Finder, or any of the files for the

Hi, I'm trying to get GTA IV working with wine. I used this POL-script: http://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-3369-1.html The game installed fine. After that I added xlive.dll from xliveless to the game directory . I downloaded and installed razor 1911 crack. Ok, and now: After the razor logo the game crashes with the following wine output: > > julian at

Hi All, I want to build a dedicated firewall/router as I am launching a NPO and I can host this in my garage. (Comcast offered me a 100 x 20 circuit for $99/mo with 5 statics) I used to run Untangle, but as of version 9, you are forced to use their build in protocol policies versus the firewalling I am used to (Deny All and then opening holes for specific IP's, etc). There are so many

Hi all, I've checked the archives and can't find anything regarding the above so here goes: Has anyone had any luck getting GTA2 or other games that require DirectX 6.1 support working under Wine so far? I used to keep a Win95 partition on my machine specifically for this game, but recently my second disk died and I need the space for my Linux installation. Any help appreciated.

Hi, I'm Sam, I'm new to the mail list (and mailing lists in general) - sorry for any basic mistakes I make! I basically a noob when it comes to compiling things, and a beginner at the command line. I think I messed a couple of things up, and was wondering if anyone knew how I could fix any of them. The story so far: I had one of the old Darwine builds working ok with a couple apps,

I trying play GTA San Andreas and it is returning " Cannot find 800x600x32 video mode". I worried so my wine Games pointed for a Working Directory that register a dosdevice instead of drive_c. Thereby I'm getting" /home/normal/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Rockstar Games/GTA San Andreas" path and "win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x177f6dc,0x00000000), stub!"

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, Running GTA (the first one, freely available on Rockstar site -> http://www.rockstargames.com/classics/gta.html) on my laptop, I have no problem in fullscreen. However, on my desktop computer, where I tried to run GTA from freevo, I got the error message "Error 296.473 - Cannot find the default display mode".

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 downloaded Darwine 1.0.1 the other day, and it's been working fine until today when I loaded it up and suddenly it didn't want to open .exe files any more. I've tried freshly installing it with a clean version, but this one isn't doing it either. This is the error I'm getting: Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. Make sure that your X server

I don't know if this is the appropriate site to post a Darwine question. If not please feel free to point me to a more appropriate stie. I?ve got Darwine 1.0-rc4 loaded on my MacBook Pro, which is running Leopard 10.5.3. when I run the Darwine app it brings up a Darwine window in Finder, with four items. And if i select winecfg.exe from the Sample Winelib Applicatoins, X pops up and then so

The .Renviron and .First functions do not seem to work the same way on a Mac OS 10.4 as on a Windows XP machine. From working in Windows I am used to creating a new directory for each data analysis project. In the new directory I place First, an .Renviron file consisting of the following text: R_HISTFILE="history.txt" R_HISTSIZE=1000000 Second, an .RData file containing a .First
