PS. the bricking of my MacBook

Hi. I'm using Fedora 9 (x86_64) and Wine 1.1.5. I updated my kernel today (my kernel version is 2.6.26.5-45.fc9.x86_64), and since then Spore stopped working (crashing at startup). I found a log file in Spore's folder, and uploaded it to my server.

Hi, While running Spore (steam version) on 1.1.42 with a GeForce 8600GT on Arch Linux x86-64, everything worked fine except for occasional DxDllReg.exe crashes. I have since replaced the card with an ATi Radeon HD4800 and the user interface now unbearably flickers, garbles (inflated bits of text and other UI elements appearing randomly) and generally looks far from correct (to the point where I

I upgraded to Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex, and Wine 1.1.8 some time last week, and then reinstalled Spore to give it some play. It worked fine for a couple of days, but now I'm in the space stage and the game is incredibly sluggish. This wasn't happening beforehand, it was running fast and marvellously smooth until I tried to stop a war on my home planet. This appears to be a recurring theme,

Alright.. so.. it seems the newly released game, spore, almost works with wine.. with a few exceptions.. there is some graphical errors that apparently seems to be able to be fixed. I found a place on the internet where a guy have posted a blog entry on how to make it working... except.. I cant seem to figure out how to follow that guide. See it here: http://ericbetts.org/node/91 Can anyone

Another fortnight, another Winetricks. This release fixes a handful of bugs, and adds a handful of games (or, really, ports them from wisotool). It also brings back the old verb dotnet20sp2, since that seems to work with wine-1.3.18 (please let me know if it's useful). It also adds a rudimentary gui to prompt for Steam username and password, cleans up the --help message, and improves mac and

I'm running linux mint 9 and the latest version of wine. Whenever I try to run spore, it says "Starting Spore tm" and then after a minute it goes away and nothing happens. I'm new to linux and I don't know how to program things like in the terminal

Hi, I've been following the list for a few months but this just my first post to the list. I've just started to use compiz again a few days ago and I have a few things (probably bugs) here that bugged me a little bit. I am not sure whether the bugs is in compiz or somewhere else so it would be nice if someone could confirm them. Here they are: - on default window decoration the maximize

I am trying to run a 2d overhead ultima type game through wine but have some problems. At one point it would run but would refresh the slides of the pictures about once every 5-8 secs and then crash after about a minute or so. Now I get these errors http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u191/bizkitboibrett/snapshot1.png http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u191/bizkitboibrett/snapshot2.png

hi guys :) I would like to play SPORE with wine. I have read a lot of commands that this should be possible with the current wine build (witch special patch). My problem is, that SPORE doesn't like my graphiccard. So it alerts that my GC isn't supported by the game. Is it possible to change the graphiccard ID string, that wine will given to the game? greets from germany Hauke

I trying to play my games Oblivion and Spore. I almost got oblivion to work but when I click create new game it freezes and forces me to quit it, not to mention it's really slow and skips. It's not my computer because it exceeds the requirements by far. And then spore won't even start.

I'll try and describe my dilemma, not really knowing what the base problem is. Ubuntu 10.04, working .wine install (updated to 1.3.9.) I have a working version of Firefox for windows 3.6.12 that I need to browse certain sites that need some windows only plugins that don't work with Firefox for Linux. I can not install the latest flash player because the Adobe screen where you

I have a couple of problems.

I am new to Wine and learning. I have a general problem that happens with multiple applications and installers - the icons in menus are oddly corrupted. If I select one, they will change to some other corruption. (See screen grabs.) If a log will help please advise, since it seems to be a general problem I am hoping it is a well known with a simple solution. I did a full OS reinstall and used

'ello, I've looked all over the place for people with similar problems, but it seems i can't figure out how to discribe what is going on well enough to find any. Here are some screenshots of what i'm experiencing in the game Perfect World International. http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t76/injected666/ss3.jpg http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t76/injected666/ss2.jpg

I'm a first-time Linux and Wine user, and I don't understand how to run Wine yet. I have Mint Elyssa, and I am trying to install Spore. When I try to run autorun.exe, this message appears: Error starting autorun program: Permission Denied I got this same message before and after installing Wine. Does this have anything to do with Securom, or am I just not understanding Wine?

What on earth has happened to spore. It used to work fine with wine 1.1.12, no real problems. Picked it up today to have a game and nothing, it tries to load and don't even get to the front screen. I have wine 1.1.16 and have downgraded to 1.1.13 with no joy. I have Nvidia graphics driver 177, downgraded to 173 and no joy. That is a shame, I did enjoy that game and now it's not working.

Did anyone tried to plays spore GF5900XT and ubuntu 8.04 Cause I have a problem.. game instals normaly but after launching I cannot see galaxy (I see menu on the left side and menu icon in left bottom corner)... So I click on screen blindly, then I find planet "new game" it starts, but in cell stage I dont see any water and any creatures, I cannot see my cell :( so its imposible to play

So here is my concern. If I install a windows program that happens to include SecuROM, where will SecuROM go? Will I get the same kind of system instability in Ubuntu as I did in windows? I read the FAQ, and the list of WINE Apps, but I couldn't find any information about it beyond that it appears to run Spore and SecuROM. After my last experience with SecuROM on windows (and current lawsuit
