similar to: How does wine "detect" graphicscard-hardware

I am using Ubuntu Hardy, using the latest release of wine from the wine repos. I have an nVidia 7600GT with 256MB of video memory. One windows game i installed, Medal of Honor Allied Assault, has a simple config utility that sets game settings based on your hardware. This utility is detecting only 64MB of video memory. I tried setting it using wine regedit, HKCU>Software>Wine>Direct3d

i was following this guide for LOTRO (Lord of the Rings Online) when i got to editing the reg settings edit > http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14566&iTestingId=37619 > > HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/Direct3D/VideoMemorySize = < amount of video memory ie 256 > > >Direct3D< is not there I cannot proceed with download until

Does Wine use past the first 64MB on any video card? This question applies to all wine versions. I have heard it stated before that wine only uses the first 64MB on your video card either in direct3d or opengl modes. Is this true? If it is true is there a registry entry that can be added to make wine use past the first 64MB on your video card? I apprecaite your help in this matter?

Hi, I have an Nvidia GTX 560 and I have my TV connected to it and get sound from the graphics-card to the TV. I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 and in the sound config I can choose to have the sound output simultaneous through the regular soundcard and through the Nvidia card out to my TV. However when I use that option the sound in Wine, only wine, starts to lagg like crazy. It's fine if I use

Hi, It's not that often that I'm messing around with Samba but I have a dilemma that I need some help with. I have a share called "common", users can create folders and files just fine but I'm wondering if it's possible to force folders/files to be created with certain user/group owner in just that specific folder. I not I can force so that everything is created with a

Hi, I have a server with www-content. I don't want Samba installed on this host as I have another server already acting as Samba host, sharing different things. My question is, what is the best way for the Samba-server to share the www-content that's on the other server? If I mount the www-content using NFS on the Samba-server there will be permission problems, unless there's a way

I've looked at different d3d settings in the application database and have a few questions. 1. I dont have a d3d registry key in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] 2.

Hi. I'm running Ubuntu 8.10, My video card is Radeon x1600 with 512 of memory, and 3D graphics. My computer is a Core 2 duo, Wine version 1.0 This same setup ran the game before I ripped out Windows and switched to Ubuntu. I downloaded the Linux driver from the ATI/Radeon site, and installed it. But Wine doesn't seem to know about it. I tried running the windows driver in WINE but it did

Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 WINE 1.2.3 WINEtricks 20111115 I followed all the instructions in the AppDB, and I was able to install DCUO using the EXE downloaded from their site (http://launch.soe.com/installer/DCUO_setup.exe).

Seems wine isn't there yet. I think it only allocates one buffer, and my debug output indicates this is causing a problem. I got 15,000+ lines of output, and I am sure we don't want to put them on this database. However, here are the last few lines: err:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_CreateNewSurface IWineD3DDevice::CreateSurface failed. hr = 8876017c err:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_CreateSurface

I seem to be able to run a video game in 1024x867 (what ever it is) as a window, by selecting the window mode button in the game. However, i can not run the game in window mode with a resolution set about 1024x867. What is going on? I am assuming i am missing something in wine or the game that does not allow the video game to be run in any resolution greater than 1024x867 in window mode.

Hello everybody. I'm a (quite) happy WINE user, but i would like to propose some things to the WINE developers. Something important imo, is that it must be easy to use for the user, and some things could be better, here are some ideas to improve it by using Winecfg: 1. Add an option to disable/enable/edit debug channels for all programs. As you may know, a lot of programs runs faster

Hi Folks, I have been using Wine for some time now to run Team Fortress 2 (and other HL2 based games) on my Ubuntu system. I was previously running Ubuntu 7.10 with an Athlon64 3800+, a 7600GT (256MB of RAM), and 2GB of DDR2 333MHz. Recently I upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) with an AthlonX2 64 6000+, an 8800GT (1GB of RAM) and 4GB of DDR 800MHz. I was really hoping for a nice performance bump

Hi, I have some problems that every time I start Outlook and retrieve my e-mails and then later tries to do it on my iPhone for example, I get some sort of problem that I can't get the mails.
