I've searched all over the internet on how to do this, but only found that people have been succesful in running the Steam version of Civilization IV on Wine, not the Direct2Drive. So I did everything on this page: http://itezer.com/blog/ubuntu-linux/140-Civilization-IV-on-Linux-with-Wine-1-1-16.html Additionally, the Wine website (

I had the same error. Try to deactivate the pixel shader in winecfg or try to install the newest ATI Catalyst? Proprietary Linux Display Driver. After installing the ATI Catalyst and DirectX9 (via winetricks), the game graphic has no more errors.

Hi, I just tried to install Civ4 1.74 according to the notes on its appdb page (using the new 1.1.10 Debian 5.0 packages), but whenever I try to run the game, I get this: matt at hayashi:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Firaxis Games/Sid Meier's Civilization 4$ wine Civilization4.exe fixme:service:QueryServiceObjectSecurity 0x141140 4 0x141828 0 0x32ef30 - semi-stub

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

Hello everyone. I tried to install Civ4 version 1.61 on my ArchLinux 64bit system with wine 1.3.3. Unfortunately the installation fails. I get to the point when I get asked to choose the language and then the installation fails giving me a lot of error messagess like these in the terminal: Code: fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x7f830746b000 0 0x7f830c5bfcb0 4 fixme:atl:AtlModuleInit SEMI-STUB

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

I am in the process of building a new machine to replace several older servers. I am considering running several virtual servers on one box, all linux for host and virtual machines using VirtualBox. Is it possible/advisable to configure shorewall on the host to act as a firewall for the virtual machines, each having one or more static public IP address? Any pointers, suggestions and/or

RC 3 is now available for testing. Problems corrected: 1) The Shorewall and Shorewall6 ''load'' and ''reload'' commands previously used the setting of RSH_COMMAND and RCP_COMMAND from /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf (/etc/shorewall6/shorewall6.conf). These commands now use the .conf file in the current working directory. 2) The new parameterized

Hi all, I''m not able to use shorewall for manage a bridge. I get the following error: ERROR: BRIDGING=Yes is not supported by Shorewall 4.4.13.3 Same error with version 4.4.11.4 I have read many documents, but I didnt find any solution. I have test many configuration (managing hosts,interfaces,zones files), but I get always the same error. Have I to compile a new kernel? With which

Hello Everyone, We have a standalone Debian Wheezy box for game/web/VoIP server. My problem is that somehow the inbound traffic is limited to 4kbit/s to 8kbit/s by default whereas it''s set to 3*full/10 with 9*full/10 ceiling. The interface is set to 100Mbit/sec and it actually gives that performance with the corresponding outbound traffic limits. Naturally when I stop shorewall this

I have read everything I can find in the docs and faqs about this, and I feel there must just be some simple thing I''m not doing, but I''m stumped. Two interfaces, eth0 and eth1.  eth1 is the WAN connection to the upstream provider, and has a single IP and the default gateway.  Connection uses bgp. eth0 is the LAN interface, and has multiple IP addresses, private (ie., 10.0.2.x)

Hi All! Been quite a few years and lots of water under the bridge but here I am back! I have a customer that has now decided they need a bit more bandwidth over and above their fixed line! They are not in a good area for ADSL because of copper theft and being a bit to far from the closest DSLAM! They have installed a wireless link and I have made certain that put it behind my simple iptables

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,

Hello Guys I have problem with internet bank. I have 2 Internet links balancing mode, thus the bank is charging connection down. I tried to force Internet traffic (port 80 and 443) for only a link, however it did not work. How do I make a setting to force the connection to these ports for a specific link. Note: I can not use the file as route_rules have neither the source IP (ltsp) nor of

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

Hi! My son successfully played demo of the Bus Driver game and thus asked me to buy him the full version, which I did. Version 1.5 of the game was then downloaded, which is not referenced in AppDb yet, and AppDb entry itself seems outdated. The game cannot complete the registration process, it ask us to connect the machine to the internet, and when we answer, that it's connected, it just

Hello folks, The only thing I miss since my switch to Ubuntu is playing a nice game every once in a while. There's really not a whole lot of native linux games out there so that leaves me with wine. Unfortunately I don't have much luck with wine. My favorite games are those of the Civilization series. I can enjoy playing civ4 for hours and hours on an end and I miss playing the game. I

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
