Hi, i used to play Warcraft 3 on wine very well years ago and recently decided to give it another go, only to find that it won't work with recent versions of wine. I think this is sad beyond words, but its not my project. I come here to ask some guidance in getting an old version of wine. My googling reveals that 0.9.10 is the one i should get. I use Ubuntu 7.10 and i can try to compile from

Hi, I was just wondering if there is any ongoing effort to get wine ported to OpenBSD. The wine version in their ports tree is from 1999 or so. -- Marcel W.

Hey guys, I'm a new Ubuntu convert (installed through Wubi, and am blown away!) I'd love to get wine working so I play games etc, but I've got a lot of learning to do when it comes to installing and getting things working. So, I want to use the 1.0-rc1 version of wine, but CoD4 requires the 3dmark.diff patch. This is what I think I need to be doing: with the 3dmark.diff file

I was installing a game, and I made the mistake of agreeing to install DirectX. I'm guessing this can screw up your WINE. Is there any way to clean up my WINE after doing something like that without having to reinstall all my software? Owen Stairs

Good morning. Is there any way to force wine to use a specific network interface? I have the following setup: eth0 internet interface tun0 openvpn some programs use broadcasting (Starcraft). I don't know how it determines which device to use. It probably takes the first it does see. (Or is it wine doing that ?) the problem is that starcraft just send the packages out via eth0. for windows

I have installed and configured utorrent with wine on the gui and set it up to work with the web interface so it can be controlled remotely. I want it to be running whenever the server is on, but I don't want to have to

Hello, This is my first post on this list. I am experiencing very often hard-locks while using different wine versions (from wine 0.9.58 until 1.0-rc3). My OS is Fedora 9 x86_64 and I also compiled 1.0-rc3 how the wine wiki told me to do. I am also experiencing hard-locks just by using winetricks. The hard-locks appear not immediately but sporadically. But that's a kernel issue I guess,

Hi there. I'm trying to turn on DirectX in Wine. (please read whole message, and only after that blamming me). Recently, I've used Gentoo and it's Wine. But after that, I switched to Fedora and start using Fedora's Wine. Some programs load successfully, but not DirectX. As I said before, everything was normal in Gentoo, but not in Fedora.

Hello all, I gave this a stab a few months ago but gave up and just set up a dual boot. I'm running low on disk space now and tired of messing with the muliple partitions, so I'm giving it another go to get Guild Wars running in Linux.

Greetings. I am using Xandros Linux on Asus Eee PC laptop. The current version of Wine I run is 0.9.58. There is a problem using your apt-get repository(wine.budgetdedicated.com) .

Hi, I just installed DirectX 9.0c on latest Wine according to howto I found here on wine sites. Well the problem is, that in dxdiag 3D tests it shows just very fast spinning (that should be, shouldn't it?) cube, but with no DirectX texture on it, just a white cube. I have nVidia 8400MG. It's working 'cause in Windows I play normally with DX 9 installed. My distro is ArchLinux. Thx

Hi, I'm having trouble running 3d apps including the Direct3d test in Dxdiag under wine. I think that the problem is that dxdiag displays my Graphics card as this: X11 Windowing System This is obviously wrong because I am running this on a Radeon 2600 Pro. When I try to run the Direct3d test It just crashes Wine. I am running the latest 8.04 Ubuntu with the Latest Fglrx Graphics drivers.

Hello, This is my first post here, so please forgive me if a get some terms wrong! I want to be able to use Linux applications to open files from within a windows application running under wine. Here's why, I have installed Ubuntu 8.04 and wine 0.9.61 using Synaptic. I have installed a very old PIM called infocentral that was originally created by Corel and which I have been using for the

I've been using Linux Ubuntu for a few days, but I already love it :) However, when I'm running windows games under wine, I get less than 10fps, while under windows they work really fast. I have installed latest Nvidia drivers from ubuntu repositories and Direct X 9c under wine (yes, dxdiag works, and it passes all the tests). I have also seen on youtube, that many people don't have
