Hello, There is a new Wine help and discussion forum at http://www.wine-forum.org/index.php that is meant to be a meeting place for anyone interested in Wine usage or development. In the past there there has never been a single forum dedicated solely to Wine. The lack of a single forum has left people to post Wine related help and discussions in other forums. At the moment most users turn to

So, if we look at January, the last month without the forum: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-users/2008-January/thread.html we had 226 posts. If we look at March, the first full month with the forum: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-users/2008-March/thread.html we had 2136 posts. Even if you say that 1,000 of those posts were meta posts with complaints from us Mailman lovers,

Hi all, First off - this is not flame bait or a troll. It's a genuine question. Since the forum gateway was introduced, it is my opinion that this list is getting flooded with newbie questions. Check the "I just installed Ubuntu" thread for a typical example. I wish to silently remove all wine-forum posts and their replies from my inbox. I plan to filter based on From:

This has bothering me for a while now, so I'm reporting it... There's a small bug in the Wine forums where, if a mailing list subscriber quotes someone in their email, the first line of their reply to that quote inevitably gets "eaten up" into the quote too. Example: > Quote line 1 > Quote line 2 > Quote line 3 > > Reply line 1 Reply line 2 Reply line 3 A

We have launched a web forum front end to this mailing list. I wanted to notify the subscribers of this list to that fact. http://forum.winehq.org If you prefer, you can now use this website to browse and post to the list. Your posts will still be mailed out to the list, and posts to the list will appear in the forum. You can continue to use the mailing list as you always have if you prefer

Hi all I want to post to the wine-users forum when I'm booted into Ubuntu Linux (because I do all my email posts when I'm in Windows) but the forum will not let me log on using my mailing list credentials (i.e the email address above and my password). If I try and subscribe from Forum Home using these credentials I just get told I'm already a subscriber. What can I do to get the

I am looking where I can subscribe to the mailing list of the forum but can not find where, could someone tell me?

What the subject says.

In trying to track down how spammers are finding my email address, it has come to my attention that past postings are being archived at http://forum.winehq.org/ which reveals mine and other posters email address. I do not know who to address this to, but hopefully one of the list maintainers will see this posting. Please stop this practice (most mail lists archives do take steps to thwart spammers

Currently, I have two accounts : one for wine-bugs and one for appdb. That doesn't annoy me as it is, but that would be cool f those were merged together. I don't know if it is possible, since appdb, bugzilla and phpbb are three different php programs, but that would help new users to participate on every side of wine. By the way, I saw that my tr'd message went on a new thread on the

Latest Nvidia drivers for linux has really nice speed boost. Most noticeable when gaming under Wine. When playing some latest games i had weird pauses at some effects. Now all of them are gone and the game I'm playing is almost smooth all the time =) For Ubuntu Deb packages i suggest this PPA for latest Nvidia Drivers. https://launchpad.net/~thefirstm/+archive/ppa

Game named Istaria: Chronicles of the Gifted (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1972) ( MMO ) is slower on ANY linux and ANY wine version exactly 2 times . For example on Windows I have 40 fps and in same place 20 fps on wine, 20 fps in Windows and ~10 fps on linux. I was trying lot of "wine tricks" without any effect. I have also installed the most up

[1.3.20]-Capture The Mouse Works Great. Suggestions... Hi, I've been crying for a long time about mouse issues while running a full screen game in an emulated desktop window, but with newest Wine these issues are gone. Would it be possible to have some hot key that the user can press to uncapture the mouse? For example, VirtualBox toggles mouse capture by pressing the right [Ctrl] key on

Hi. When I installed WINE the first time, everything worked long - except Battle.net in Warcraft (it was v0.9.45 and I found out, that it wont work). I installed the newest version (v0.9.55) and really tried everything, but it doesn't work well: The problem is, that everything needs about 5-10 minutes. When I start winecfg - when I start any program with wine (wine war3.exe) - it always needs

Hi folks, the volunteer admins for forum.winehq.org have been deleting an increasing amount of spam lately, and it seems clear that we need to update the forum software to a new release with better antispam features. The catch is, the mailing list gateway plugin is not compatible with the new version of the forum. It looks like the users are split about 90% on the forum and about 10% on the

It has been suggested that the wine-users list is now too busy, and needs to be split into two: one for experienced users, and one for beginners. However, this might leave the beginners adrift without any experienced people to help them. So I don't think we should do it unless at least a handful of experienced users are willing to join the new group and lend a hand. I'm willing, but I

Trouble is if you split the list into newbies and non-newbies the people the other Alan despises so much won't think of themselves as newbies. As a relative newbie myself I find it hard to swallow some of the near-elitist attitude shown by some experts, calling someone who isn't as experienced as you a noob is just plain insulting. I hope when those people learn something new they

wine 1.1.4, Guild wars works without problems but its sluggish slow - about 15 fps, when in windows ive got about 80-100 (gf 7600GT) i tried some registry keys mentioned in wiki, but without results - its not playable at all - what to do??

How does the gateway between list and forum work? I don't just mean the simple posting thing, I mean all the little management nuts'n'bolts that made their ned apparent after the gateway was in place. I ask because Wikimedia is considering this for at least one of its lists (foundation-l), and probably others if that goes well. The Wine forum appears to work very well, and speaking
