similar to: Wine apps load from Ubuntu application munu but not from cli

Hi, i was really searching a lot (not only on this board), but im still not able to create reliable Launchers / Shortcuts for Wine Applications. While there are certainly many ways, which will SOMEtimes work for SOME Apps, I would appreciate it very much if there was a secure, reliable by-the-book way. So, there are certain apps on my pc, that run fine with wine, but it is of course always a

I have Civ4 BTS 3.17 installed and running on Ubuntu 8.10 using Wine 1.1.13. The game seems to be OK but I have been playing the Fall from Heaven 2 mod recently and the data for the Great Library used within the game is corrupted (sages being given ridiculously large espionage bonuses). The xml files on disk are fine and there is no problem when running the same mod on Windows. I am using the

The game isn't out for a few days yet, but people are salivating, see http://forums.macnn.com/77/gaming/422760/somebody-help-civ-5-in-crossover/

Hi all, I'm hoping that someone has seen this one before. I am trying to get Civ4 working in Wine 1.2 on my Mac and I get so far as the stage where it initializes Python and it fails. I've attached the log at the end of this transmission. It's relatively short as these things go. I can see at least one error: 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback but I have no clue as to

Initially the bottom half of the screen was cut off for civilization 4 and It seems to have corrected itself now, for unknown reasons. Now it keeps giving the computer opponents time victories within a few minutes. Why is it doing that? And how do i correct it?

when i run: wine ./Civilization4.exe (in the correct dir) i get this output: ###################### fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 55 (SPI_SETMOUSEKEYS) fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 59 (SPI_SETSTICKYKEYS) fixme:cursor:CURSORICON_CreateIconFromANI Loading all frames for .ani cursors not implemented. err:ole:CoGetClassObject class

I know this is a long shot, but I have to ask. I had tried to get Civ4 working in Wine without success in the past, but recently was encouraged to try again based on reports in the Civ4 linux forum. One key was that versions before 1.3.X didn't work. Running openSuse 11.4, which installed Wine 1.3.12, I just followed the usual procedure to install Civ4, Beyond the Sword and my favorite mod,

Hi, I've noticed, now that I'm using twinview, that when I click any other window outside of the Wine desktop (Civ4 or WCIII normally), I can click back to the Wine desktop but can no longer use any of the keyboard shortcuts. Things work fine before actually clicking outside the wine window (for example, on my Pidgin chat window). This happens whether the app is run in windowed mode or

I could install Civ4 D2D, but I also can't find a way to get past the pop-up window of html/javascript code. I installed all the libraries that I thought might help. I tried copying the Trymedia folder, though there didn't seem to be any directory in my wineprefix that corresponded directly to Documents and Settings/All Users. I tried making it, I tried the Public user directory that I

I have a problem running the game... I've tried installing it twice now and it still doesn't run. The Icon briefly opens on the Dock and the disappears in a few seconds. Also, when I try running the command "civilization4.exe" it doesn't run and no error appears on the screen. It simply reads: ' Command results The command "/Users/adrianfurlan/Library/Application

After loading, Civilization 4 fails with the error below before reaching the main menu/actually launching. I've searched the forums an elsewhere and have not been able to find a solution. I'm currently running Wine: 1.0-rc5 on Xubuntu 8.04-64 bit. I'm using the 173.14.05 Nvidia drivers, GeForce 8200 integrated graphics. If this problem has an obvious cause or solution I missed, I

In this forum post : http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=9260 , it has been suggested that we test DX10 games and that we report issues. However, with only about 5% of the entire implementation done, we can expect a lot of things to not work properly. Hence, I was wondering how would it be best to proceed with reporting. Is it recommended to test with winetricks d3dx10, or clean wine? What

What am I doing wrong that I can not get Civ4 to run? I am running ubuntu 10.04, wine 1.2.2 No matter what I try I get this when running Civ4 (after installation) Code: fixme:service:QueryServiceObjectSecurity 0x13a250 4 0x13a508 0 0x32eeb8 - semi-stub fixme:service:QueryServiceObjectSecurity 0x13a250 4 0x13a508 28 0x32eeb8 - semi-stub fixme:advapi:SetEntriesInAclA 1 0x32ee48 0x13a51c 0x32eeb4

Running Wine v1.1.42 and Ubuntu 10.04 I'm not sure if this is a Wine error or something else generating the error. I'm trying to install a program called XProtect Smart Client (http://www.milestonesys.com/Downloads). It installs without any errors but it doesn't run. I've had to do quite a few things and now I'm down to where I run it from the console I get the following

Hi. I upgraded my Ubuntu installation to 10.04 this morning and now I can't make Civ4 work anymore (Beyond the Sword, patched 3.19, with last BUG mod). The application starts OK, but when I click "New Game", it crashes with this console message : wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x18868000 at address 0x7c3428fa (thread 0009), starting debugger...

I'm an avid gamer, I play all kinds of games and a wide variety of specific titles, be they on the A-list or B-list. How realistic would it be for a person like me to rely solely on WINE for PC gaming? I understand that the pace with which WINE can catch up is relatively quick (a few months), but a few months is still a long time to wait if I'm itching to get started on a new release. I

Hi All I'm new to this list. Would anyone kindly tell me what is the level of progress of Wine toward DX10 implementation?

Hi there, I was just wondering how I would go about creating a bash script for Steam apps. I just started college in Pre-Biochem. and Pre-Comp. Sci. so I'm not far enough in yet (and midterms are coming up, how embarrassing) but the point is, I don't know how to create a bash script for steam apps. I know they start up steam first, then log in, and then get into the game. I'm not
