State of Steam Games
What is the current status of Steam games in Wine? Some people claim same or better performance than Windows and other say its much worse. At least with TF2, the game goes from great performance with decent settings in Windows, to barely playable with all settings on low in Wine.

This diff needs fixing.
It is just me or is the entire Wine AppDB screwed up? Why is it that people complain when no-cd fixes are used when a programs is rated platinum, yet when you need to set and use native dll's it's okay? It's either one or the other, for example why is MS Office 2007 rated platinum for? You need native dll's and not wines versions to run it, yet in games that use secu-rom or other

Properly rating my submissions
Hi, I just wanted to verify the appdb rules/format so I correctly make my submissions in the future. I was surprised when I received an admin edit after submitting: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=22285&iTestingId=59851 recently. The game worked completely flawlessly for me, so I submitted it as a "Platinum" rating. However, since I had to set Wine to

"Serious Error" with Mac OS X Leopard
I've successfully downloaded and run a number of simple Windows programs using Wine. But I've had no success with any programs that require an installer. The installation process seems to work properly, but then when I try to run the app, I get Code: The program <programname.exe> has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Can someone change the AppDB Status Change colors
I know it's a small thing, but it's been bugging the heck out of me for a few years now.... The colors you picked for the AppDB status change are horrible and don't help to communicate information at all. In fact, it actually hinders proper reading of the graph, The issue is that "Platinum", "Silver", and to a lesser extent, "Garbage" are almost the same

[OT] how do I remove a battery
I've got an MSI K9N Platinum MS 7250 VER 1.1 motherboard with a dead battery. The battery mounts vertically: http://www.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/~hennebry/computer/battery.png To me, the tab on the right would seem to need moving. It does not want to move. I am reluctant to apply any more force than I already have without knowing how to apply it. How do I remove the battery? -- Michael hennebry

client disconnects after one song is played || Winamp
I will give the older version of winamp a try. Interestingly enough, I found that zinf on linux on the internet does work. I wonder if these other clients on mac and winblows use an out dated version of vorbis. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to
