similar to: "running wineinstall as root" error - Mac OS X

In short, when running a application via wine, the active window migrates down my screen until it disappears, and then returns from the top of the screen. This problem did not exist with 0.9.58, but has been present ever since. I compile wine from source by running ./tools/wineinstall, as suggested in the README file that comes with the source. Can anyone else verify this problem? Or is it local

This is driving me crazy. I have wine downloaded on my MAC. It's in my application folder. I have MIRC downloaded and it's also in my Application folder. But, when I turn off MIRC, and turn it back on, the whole thing wants to reload. Very annoying since that means it's not saving settings. Any ideas?

I need help getting my joystick functioning for Wine in Mac OS X. I am using Wineskin with Wine version 1.3.9 and Mac OS 10.6.5. The joystick is functional and my Mac reads it fine. I've tried editing the regedit keys by creating a DirectInput key with the string "Logitech Logitech Extreme 3D" = "X,Y,Rz,Slider1,POV1,POV2". However, that did nothing. I also tried putting the

I am trying to compile and install Wine on FreeBSD 4.6-stable using wineinstall. Any help/suggestions are appreciated. Wineinstall gives me the following error: make: don't know how to make .spec.o.

Hi I am running Slackware Linux 8.0 with Kernel 2.4.5 and perl 5.6.1. I have my windows partition(D:) mounted at /windows and my fat startuppartition(C:) at /dos. Windows itself is found in /windows/windows. I tried installing Wine-20010824 using wineinstall and these are the problems I had: - When wineinstall was searching for existing windows installations it said: 'Windows was not

Hello, I have compiled the source of wine for the first time but I had not installed any package as flex and I get an error message. This error only showed that you must install the package, but in English and would rather useful for people who compiles for the first time, appeared in their language. You simply could detect the language before starting to compile a file and include constant

Howdy. I have SuSE 7.2 and installed wine via YaST (wine rpm). I do not have windows on my computer at all. The docs tell me to run tools.wineinstall, but I do not seem to have that on my system. I'm stuck. I've created C:\windows, C:\windows\system, etc. and I can run the command wine --version, but that's it. Ideas? Thanks :)

Hi, i had installed the wine by wineinstall.Here is the result : Installation complete for now. Good luck (this is still beta software). If you have problems with WINE, please read the documentation first, as many kinds of potential problems are explained there. [cjzjm100 at localhost wine-0.9.58]$ wine /media/F_drive/Thunder5.7.4.401.exe bash: /usr/bin/wine: there is't that file or content

You have to run ./tools/wineinstall as a normal user, not root. Ivan.

Hi, I am trying to compile wine, well i just done ./configure and make depend && make stuff. After compilation finished (successfully). I discovered wineinstall, i tried to use it but the problem is that regapi returns an error : it cannot find shared object libntdll.so, even when i symlink it in programs/regapi/ in my root compilation directory and in /ust/local/lib (i am installing wine

Regarding the most recent release wine20040615. When using ./tools/wineinstall I got an error stating that a 'static' version of glibc was required. I'm using Mandrake 10 Official and would have thought that such a monster was included considering the last stable release appears to be from last year. So, what is a 'static' version and what do I need to do to overcome this

Or is that a stupid question? I want to have one copy of the code CVS on the system, but I want multiple accounts to be able to run the tools/wineinstall app to get the account set up locally. (Mine for testing game setup and my son's for actually playing the games.) Is this wrong? Maybe there's some other tools/wine-app-name-here that will create a .wine directory structure correctly

I need help... I've tried installing Wine through both the recommended and manual proceedures, and it refuses to install. In the Root Terminal, it says that "it is not recommended to install under root", that I "should switch to a lower level user", and then it aborts; yet it will not install under any other user. And now, when I try ./config and ./tools/wineinstall it

Good day, I wanted to ask if there is a way to include either X11 or XQuartz into a custom compiled wine? The idea is that the program will run whether or not the user has XQuartz installed. Basically a fallback that will be included with the .app that holds the wine binaries. I am new to Mac and I had some success but I want to understand it more, where the config files of the included XQuartz

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.

Firstly, hello everyone! I'v been using wine under OSX for some time, using macports to install it and it works quite nicely (except for an issue with windows sliding down the screen, which can be fixed by setting a desktop area in winecfg). Sadly I'v not been able to get OpenGL support working. (I am using OSX 10.5.4 with XQuartz (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki) 2.3.0, which is

I'm running Snow Leopard on a fairly new Macbook Pro. Currently wine won't load any windows. I can't seem to find an answer to this problem even though there are a lot of linux info about this. it doesn't seem to work on mac. This is what is output in Terminal: X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow)

Just as a note.. Xquartz is going to have RANDR capabilities in Xquartz 2.6.0, thanks to the work of Jeremy Huddleston and Jan Hauffa. Right now on Macports if you install xorg-server-devel it will be a build with what is currently in of RandR... its still not totally finished, but it would be nice if some Mac Users could test how it works so far with Wine... if we find bugs now, it could help
