Hello, I'm Berserker, author of Berserker at Quake2 and Berserker at Quake3 projects. Page: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=10672 has the incorrect information.

I am running FC2 on a Dell 600SC, latest wine version. FYI:Quake II will run on machines with only 4 MB video cards and no OpenGL. It runs fine under Windoze. Under Wine it runs the "launching demo" well but then I have no keyboard or mouse control. I must force the power off to regain control. On Windoze one would hit the escape key at this point and a menu screen appears with

Hi Eric, logging is configured in sshd_config with - # Logging # obsoletes QuietMode and FascistLogging SyslogFacility AUTH LogLevel INFO - where 'SyslogFacility' specifies which "facility" (sorry;-), i.e. e.g. 'auth', 'daemon', 'mail' etc should be used and with 'LogLevel' you can specify how verbosely sshd should be. Of course the

Hi all, I have installed samba on both BSDI 3.1 and Linux. I have been having trouble compiling on linux so I got a binary form and installed it. So far all seems to work except the password keeps getting rejected when trying to map a drive. It is happening in both the linux version and BSDI. I am loging into windows with the same user/pass as my unix account and am trying to map a drive it

Sorry to send this to the wrong list. But it appears that the general list is mostly utilized as a SPAM vector and/or is absentee moderated (the message has yet to make it to the archives, despite being dated days earlier than messages which are there). In any event, I'd like to know if anyone could provide me with some more information than is available in the manpages, FAQ, and other

I've had a long-standing problem syncing my home directory from one Linux system (RH Linux 7.3) to another (RH Linux 9). I am now running rsync version 2.6.2 on both ends. I use ssh as the data transport. The two machines are separated by a VPN over the Internet. What happens is that the sending rsync just appears to hang. The receiving rsync processes are no longer running when I go

Hello, I'm trying to install quake 2, which doesn't work. I'm getting a 'warning' page up saying: This version of Quake II will not install on this language version of Windows 95/NT. ..and that I should find a localized version and such... Apparently WINE on my Ubuntu machine speaks US-English and on the cd it's written that 'this product is intended for sale outside

I will try to explain the best I can - but honestly... it may be hard to understand what I am talking about anyway... Problem is like this - whatever I try to play OpenGL based game that uses Quake 3 engine I got weird mouse "jumps". Let's take Soldier of Fortune 2 Demo as it can be downloaded for free. When in jungle I try to look left or right - mouse jumps slightly (the

Hi there, I''m total stuck in this. I have NO problems, with controlling port 80, 22, 21 and other TCP ports. But to open UDP port 27960 is very difficult for me, I''ve searched google, but can''t find a solution, therefore I ask the experts in here.

I know this has come up before....but.. I've got a locking issue I can't get over. Situation: --------- Unix writes a file to the /tmp directory MS-DOS (WFW 3.11) copys over the file (copy d:\file.txt ), locking it, and not releasing the lock. If Unix subsequently changes the file a re-issuing of the MS-DOS 'copy' command will appear to work ... but the MS-DOS file is

when i try to load it with wine all i get is a grey screen and nothing happens...have to control alt del and log out of ubuntu to be able to do anything...sometimes it will even lock up the entire pc and i have to manually reset it...most of the time its just a grey screen though ive tried disabling compiz, reinstalling nvidia drivers, different wine compatibility modes/graphics tab settings and

amd from the amd-920824upl102-6.i386.rpm file distributed with RedHat Linux 4.1 does not honor the nodev option for NFS filesystems and probably other mount types, allowing any user access to the device files in /dev on a system, provided that they have root access to another linux box on the network. In addition, the default amd.conf from RH 4.1 maps /net/* to NFS mounting, which makes the bug in

I have this problem: When playing a PC game via wine while listening to music with let's say Amarok, there's no sound in the PC game anymore. It's like the sound channel is occupied by the music player so wine cannot playback any soundfiles. Sounds are working if I play a Linux game like Nexuiz while running some music via a music player (ok, completely different, I know, but
