Please Fix:"Allow DirectX apps to stop the mouse leaving their window" Hi, Can you fix the option: "Allow DirectX apps to stop the mouse leaving their window" ? There are MANY games I can't play because the above option does not work. Thanks! Jesse "JeZ+Lee"

Hi, When I turn on: "Allow Directx apps to stop the mouse leaving their window" in Wine configuration it does not work? I have to run Steam games in a window because in full screen my keyboard does not work. Any ideas? Thanks! Jesse

Hi, Maybe you've talked about this many times before, but i've got a problem with DirectX. When i try to run any application that uses DirectX it just tells me that i don't have it installed on my system. The fact is that i do have it installed, and works fine in Windows ME, maybe the version is too recent? i'm using DirectX 7. My system is: Linux Redhat 6.2, Windows ME,

Hi, I'm trying to install the game "Aquanox" under Wine which needs DirectX 8.0. I've found a mail in the wine mailing list archive stating that wine already includes DirectX, but Aquanox keeps complaining about a missing d3d8.dll. Trying to install DirectX 8.0, I end up with "DirectX couldn't be installed on this computer". Any hints on this one? Sebastian --

Does the current CVS version of wine have the transgaming directX patch already in it? I'm pretty sure that I've installed wine correctly. I installed the most recent RPM available, and the Diablo II installer says that it can't find direct X. I then downloaded the tar-ball, and tried to run the transgaming patch on it, and it said that it had already been run. That's not so

I've tried to install the game "Caesar 3" on my Linux-box. It worked fine during the installation. The problem appeared when I wanted to play it. Caesar 3 needed the file DDRAW.DLL I found out that it was one of DirectX's .dll-files. Isn't Wine supposed to work with DirectX without installing it? Doesn't Wine have its own "DirectX-clone"? What should I

Hi all, I was trying to run Diablo II under WINE, but I receive a "Direct3D failed to initialize" error in a dialog box. The log says this: ***** DirectDraw error: Failed to get gamma control interface! - < unknown > (0x80004002) I tryed to run in both 640x480x16 and 640x480x8, but both give the same error message. I'm using Linux 2.4.1, XFree86 4.0.1 on a GeForce256 DDR

I have Wine-20010112 in a RedHat7 box and I'm a butt newbie in wine. :) I've installed succesfully the game 'Shatered Galaxy' but the graphics are weird, it looks like a directx problem to me, so I tryed to install the latest DirectX 8 that I found in M$.com but it says something like 'This version of DirectX can't run in your Operating System'. Anyone knows a way

I just tried to install an ancient detective-type RPG ( I am not up with the classifications.) (a) It offered to install DirectX. Since Wine has its own DirectX, I ignored that. (b) The game failed to run because (according to the message box) it couldn't find DirectDraw. This showed as a Fixme in the terminal, while the error message was to do with the display settings - there was no mode

Hi there. I'm trying to turn on DirectX in Wine. (please read whole message, and only after that blamming me). Recently, I've used Gentoo and it's Wine. But after that, I switched to Fedora and start using Fedora's Wine. Some programs load successfully, but not DirectX. As I said before, everything was normal in Gentoo, but not in Fedora. (for both I have amd64 (x86_64) arch).

Hi everyone, Just wanted to let everyone know that the TransGaming DirectX development is now being hosted at SourceForge. You can get updates from our live CVS tree, discuss DirectX specific issues on the 'WineX-devel' mailing list, etc. The SourceForge project page is at: http://sourceforge.net/project/winex The CVSROOT for CVS is:

Could someone please post a concise explanation of what's required to get directX working in wine? Here's what I've tried, and vaguely what happened (I'm running RedHat 7.1, new install): installed most recent rpm version of wine can't find direct X (shouldn't be surprising) uninstalled got most recent tarball of wine compiled it can't find direct X

Some days ago I had installed wine 1.3.7 on Debian Stable "Lenny" AMD64. I could play DirectX games fine. Yesterday I installed Wine 1.3.11 on Debian Testing "Squeeze", and all DirectX apps crashed on startup. Then, I tested on Wine 1.1.4 and 1.2, but none made these apps work... Next, I tried on Wine 1.0, and worked! Also I tried under Wine 1.2 on Ubuntu 10.10, but

Hi all I would like to run an old game that was written for directx5. Is there a way to change that in wine? Also, if I want to disable directdraw how can I do it? Many thanks Costas

Hi: I can't get Red Alert (The old version, not Red Alert II) to work with wine. This is suprising since the Apps database on winehq.com has three entries that say Red Alert works. For me the screen goes black and stays that way. I get out of it by killing X witn Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. This the the error output from wine: Invoking /opt/wine/bin/wine.bin /WIN95/westwood/redalert/ra95.exe ...

I am running Starcraft under Wine on RH 7.0 with Stock XF86 server. I got OpenGL to work with my NVidia GEForce 2 MX card (hence, DRI works), because I have installed the Linux version of Unreal Tournament and it works beautifully. Unfortunately, that is much more than I can say about Starcraft under Wine. I understand that there is an X extension called DGA that I can use to speed things

Hi, i am in the process of prototyping a small (inter-)network game client that is intented to run on windows. I don't have the time nor desire to create a dedicated linux port of it, but as some users may want to use it on linux, i'd like to know what points could be important to make a win app run as smoothly on wine as possible with little extra effort. Development system will be

im trying to run worms world party with wine cvs 04/13/01 after manually instaling by installing on a windows machine then copying acorss to my machine (it uses installshield which crashes under wine), the game launches it is really really horribly flickery, and quite slow. its a directdraw game, but as far as i can tell its not making any attempt to change to the resolution it wants. im

Hello, I've got the following problem: I'm playing myst 3 Exile in wine-1.1.2 on ubuntu 8.04 with winecfg set to emulate virtual desktop and with directX mouse grab disable (from the wineconfig graphic interface) This last point does not seems to work because when I play myst, once the mouse has entered the wine window, I then can not leave anymore : the cursor won't get out of the

Hi, everyone, my first post here, and I'm not even quite sure if I should post it in a Wine forum or in an Intel or an OpenGL one, but since my problems occur only with Wine I guess I should start here. The problem is, I simply cannot run any program that require DirectX. After googling about it, I've found out that the problem lies in my Graphic card, which is an Intel GM965 that has
