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

Lately, when I attempted to run some of my apps, they crashed with the following output. Code: Wrong JPEG library version: library is 62, caller expects 70 I run Gentoo Linux X64.

Hey there everyone. I am trying to get Lords of the Realm II to install and I can't seem to get even into the opening screen of the setup.exe I keep on getting a "Insufficient Memory to perform operation" dialogue box and then it runs the opening music and then that's it... I've googled and searched on the forum but I can't come up with anything. I am using Wine 1.1.35

Greetings, long, long ago i played successfully mm8 on wine. Time has passed enough to play it again. ;) Well, there is a problem now. See the screenshot. http://www.triffids.de/pub/screenshot/mm8.jpg (76 KB) A great part of the image is brightened and remains so for all future images. This effect i do only see with mm8. For the test i am using wine 1.3.0 with a freshly created ~/.wine. No

I have recently formatted my system in order to install Intrepid Ibex, and I am now using it with Wine 1.1.7. I did a backup of the prefixes of the games I was using in Hardy / Wine up to 1.1.5, and imported them in my new installment. The games work normally, but the sound is crackling all the time for each of them; something which was not happening in my former installment. I have not noticed

This is not a fault or complaint, just a query for some information. 1. To play windows games in Wine, do I need to load directx, or is it handled by wine as a default? 2. I'm having problems in some games using the NVIDIA drivers (GF2 7186). For example 'Legion Arena' http://www.slitherine.com/games/legion_arena seems to get further with the open source 'nv' drivers as

Hello, I'm using Linux for about two months now. Even before switching to Linux I have heard of Wine. I got my system running relativelly stable (I use Slackware 10.2, kernel-2.6.14 and KDE 3.4), but still have some issues - sound being one of them. But that's my problem. I'd like to contribute to the wine project somehow. Perhaps starting as a test user for some application.

I use a Nvidia geforce gtx 260m on a fedora 14 and i just installed neverwinter nights 2. When i start the game i get a box in which it says: Your video card has less than 128 MB of video memory. Performance may be less than optimal. and that is crazy because i have 1gb of video memory. and then another box appears which says Unable to detect a video card with hardware 3D acceleration.

Greetings to all, I've installed Tomb Raider Underworld, but when I tried to play I got the following message: Code: "Tomb Raider: Underworld Error" "This game requires a DirectX9.0c capable graphics card. your card or driver does not support DirectX9.0c 3D Acceleration." I've winetricks installed and I installed: "d3dx9", "physx" and I still

I think the subjetc sais it all :/ What happened with the World Wine News?

I am using utorrent to use torrents from a particular torrent site which I haven't been able to make their torrents work with KTorrent. I have an issue with one of them, when I attempt to save it in utorrent I get "Unable to save .torrent to C:\...\Kein Blick zurLck.torrent". I believe that this is caused by the cyrillic character in the name, which replaces the German "?"

There was a sticky around the month of June with a query for old bugs that now seems to have dissapeared. Just wondering if there is still a need for old bugs to be hunted and if yes, if the query can be restored in this post.

Hi, I'm new to the forums and decided to join it in case of future problems with programs related to wine. Anyways, I have a problem with this free game called Wild Metal. There aren't any graphical problems that I can see but the game doesn't my keyboard. Has anyone else tried getting this game to work? You can download it off the Rockstar website under free classic games.

There is a page on the main website describing the status of the entire WINE project (http://www.winehq.org/status), which has not been updated for over 4 years. Is there an update planned for it soon with the upcoming release of WINE 1.4? If not, should it be removed from the main website? ATM it is quite misleading for users who want to know where the project is up at.

Since I installed Wine on my computer, I have mostly been using the Playonlinux application to manage the installation and maintenance of the games I have tested. The cool thing about it is that I can create wineprefixes for each application I wish to test, and therefore not having the tweaks of one program interfering with another. It's working great with applications which run almost

I was just wondering if there was a change applied in the release format and dates of these newsletters. I noticed that before the WineConf issue they were released monthly; since then there hasn't been one published. I just enjoyed reading these and getting informed about WINE development; hence no big deal, but it would be great to hear what decisions have been taken in the timespan between

when I try to launch world of warcraft in wine I get this Could not launch 'World of Warcraft' Failed to change to directory '/home/shawn/.wine/dosdevices/C:/Prgram Files/World of Warcraft/' (Permission denied)

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
