Hi I have a relatively small executable (and also the source code) for an experimental data logging application which was written to be used with DOS in the middle ages of earth. I tried to install it using wine. Wine simply hangs after the second line - no return to prompt - see below: user@Laptop:~$ wine '/home/user/Desktop/Pocket.exe' Warning: unprotecting memory to allow real-mode

Hello, this is my first wine-time, and a lot of winprograms run "out of the box" Great! But there is a little DOS-program which does not run. Where can I look for the error? Thanks for any hint. geo@toso:~> wine "c:\Program Files\saft\saft.exe" Warning: unprotecting the first 64KB of memory to allow real-mode calls. NULL pointer accesses will no longer be caught.

I must run Turbo C for the university. The install seemed to go alright, but when I try to run it I get: $ wine TC.EXE Warning: unprotecting memory to allow real-mode calls. NULL pointer accesses will no longer be caught. err:module:MZ_DoLoadImage insufficient DOS memory winevdm: can't exec 'C:\tc\BIN\TC.EXE': error=8 What should I do? I've 512 MB RAM- I can't imagine

Hi, in order to complete an installation, I need to change the "target" property as you would see in windows. I tried opening explorer.exe and changing it through there, but there is no option to. Is there any way I can change this? To start playing WarcraftII, I have to open multiple files from different directories at once. Since I can't edit the target properties through wine or

out of curiosity, i ran war2 BNE. the same thing happened as in starcraft: keyboard would not work. it didnt give me any error messages or anything, so I cant really put any of that up here. hmm. any ideas?

Hi I am a new user of Cent OS distro and I am starting to work with CentOS 3.9 on a laptop Acer Travelmate -2423. My idea is to collaborate with the laptop section giving my experience with the system. Principally I will use it for development on FPGA and VHDL ( Xilinx ISE and uClinux ).

I haven't followed Wine in quite a while, other than to do an occasional update (but hopefully this will change). I noticed DOSBox support was added in January 2011. My understanding is that when Wine can't even attempt to run DOS programs itself (MAC OSX, 64bit OSes, etc) that it will attempt to run using DOSBox. Is this correct? Is the plan to replace native Wine DOS support across the

The install is an .exe which must be run in windows, but the actual program requires DOS support. Should I install a windows version of dosbox in wine and then run dosbox in wine and have my windows dosbox run the .exe? And yes, Linux dosbox cant run it.

Folks, I am terribly puzzled by an issue reported as bug 2381 [http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2381] ? definitely an upstream bug, as it does the same under X/OS 5 and StartCom 5. Simply put: Hibernation fails with horrendous I/O errors after swsusp starts dumping to swap. What bugs me is that hibernating from the CentOS 5 LiveCD *works*!!! (on the same hardware) How could I investigate to

I am curious how come Wine has no direct support for DOS but has support for Windows 2,3 & 95 (which required DOS for their installation). I think of Wine as an utility to run legacy software and DOS compromises a big chunk of it. I know I can use Dosbox but it would be better for the end user if one program could run in linux all software made for m$. As a bonus, Dosbox also is open source,

OS: SuSE 10.0 Wine: v20050725-3.2 I am trying to move this ancient DOS accounting application from a dying SCO OpenServer system where it has run happily under DOS/Merge for years. The original installation have long since disappeared. I made a tar archive of the mc8 directory and all its subdirectories. moved it to the SuSE box and untarred it under my ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/mc8

It is probably not strictly related to SAMBA itself but let me try to ask you for advice. Using smbmount I have mounted one of smb/cifs share to /root/test. This share has RW access and no authentication is required. Now, under DOSBox, whenever I try to mount /root/test I get this error (command sent under DOSBox: mount c /root/test). Directory /root/test doesn't exist. Any other directories,

Software as Application, can always find a replacement. (Well most of the time) But Software as Games, there is good chance that you will never find a replacement. They are their own unique Art. (Classical games is another story, such as chess, and those "public domain") In order words, doesn't matter how old a game might be. it will not get obsolesce. When it come to

I'm running Debian/Wheezey (testing) which uses the rather old Wine v1.0.1. This is on an AMD64 machine. I was able to install Borland's Visual dBASE without any problems but when I start it, or any application developed with it, I get an error message in an Alert box on top of the startup splash screen that reads: Error: Printer error. When I click OK, the application exits. The command

Very rarely is a netbook officially announced any more, as it is more often revealed by another means.

Hi, I have a windows app that allows an old dos program that will only print to LPT, to redirect to a USB printer. I was able to use this in native windows. But Wine does not seem to be able to launch a dos box like windows could. The program is at: http://www.dos2usb.com/download.htm Unless there is some other way to redirect an LPT port? Thanks Bob

I'm having problems running a batch script that executes a combination of 32 and 16 bit exe's. The 32 bit programs run fine. When the 16-bit exe executes, wine finds dosbox and dosbox executes the program fine. However that 16 bit program creates a file which then needs to be used in the following part of the script. There's no sign of that file after dosbox exits and wine continues

Hey guys, i know this post is old, but i'm also having the same problem. I'm trying to compile MASM 6.1.5 programs in wine, and using ml.exe compiles and links everything perfectly and outputs a .exe file with no complaints. Then, when i try and run the program it give me an error like Code: fixme:module:__wine_load_dos_exe DOS executables not supported on this platform winevdm:

Hello, First of all, I'd like to point out that I am a newbie in this topic and this is more of a "would it work?" kind of question. I basically just came up with a difficult problem and decided to research on it. I recently tried to run Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall on an ARM netbook Toshiba AC100 and failed even after turning on the latest patches for "dynamic
