similar to: Baldurs Gate Throne of Bhaal won't launch

Hey there I installed Baldurs Gate 2 with Throne of Bhaal under Ubuntu 9.04 through Wine 1.1.26. It went fine and I was able to start the game. But there was besides the normale Gamecursor the Systemcursor, which I couldnt move. It stayed there even as I loaded the Game. Screen: [Image: http://www.abload.de/img/fotokhrc.jpg ] I wasnt able to save the game aswell. Any Solutions? BTW: Baldurs Gate

Hi NG, i tried to run baldurs gate. I saw the Intro and thats all. Wine was always printing the same message:"fixme:ddraw:Main_DirectDraw_CreateSurface App didn't request a valid surface type - assuming offscreenplain". Is this a missing feature in wine (when will it be implemented)? PS:I'm running the cvs version of today(4.May)

I'm trying to make Baldurs Gate II multiplayer working. I've used DLLs from archive on http://wiki.winehq.org/DirectPlayGames (and from my WinXP install). I've added DLL overrides (native,builtin) for: dplayx, dpnet, dpnhpast but the last: dpwsockx isn't on the list in winecfg. When I try to start a multiplayer game wine has a memory leak or something - goes to SWAP, everything is

The latest Fedora 9 RPM install of Wine (0.9.58-1) will give the following complaint without freetype installed: Code: Wine cannot find the FreeType font library. To enable Wine to use TrueType fonts please install a version of FreeType greater than or equal to 2.0.5. http://www.freetype.org However Icewind Dale 2 still runs fine. But if I install freetype then it won't run at all and

hi, I'm experiencing some kind of strange performance problem when running baldurs gate 2 with wine. It takes me about 10 to 12 minutes to start a new game or load an old one. it's only the loading itself that takes so long. The game is running at normal speed when fully loaded. Any ideas what might be causing the problem?

To come clean at the very beginning of all this, I'm a very new Linux user - my Windows XP computer decided to destroy itself and so Ubuntu was my only choice in lieu of buying another copy of an already shoddy operating system. Because the Baldur's Gate 2 CDs do not have copy-protection, I simply copied their contents into a single folder in c: within wine's invisible directory.

When I downloaded Baldur's Gate II it wouldn't let me install it because it "was not marked as executable" So I ran it in the terminal and this debug thing came up WeiDU v 21700 Log Setup-BGT.exe ERROR: Unable to find CHITIN.KEY in: . .. ../.. ../../.. ../../../.. . . . . . C:\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII - SoA D:\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII -

I am using Fedora 8 with Wine 1.0 rc3. The game seemed to install ok. I did a full install. When I try to run baldur.exe from the wine menu in KDE I get a splash screen opening up with the options to install, exit , configure, update and demos. I also get a message box telling me that I have to install Baldur's Gate II before playing. As far as I can tell, it's installed. Can anyone help

Hi, I tried to run a game (War in the Pacific) using Wine on my Ubuntu laptop. The game won't run, so I entered it to AppDB. Are there more things I can try or add to my report? Like enabling debug logs in Wine or anything like that?

Howdy Folks, I'm trying to install Baldur's Gate II on a windowsless Wine configuration and not having much luck. When I run Setup.exe from /cdrom, I get the Baldur's Gate II splash screen, the progress bar indicating that InstallShield is preparing to install Baldur's Gate II - Shadow of Amn and a message box stating 'Error installing iKernel.exe: (0x1400)'. When I

Well, Now that I've made it through the actual install, I figured I'ld take Baldur's Gate for a spin. The main screeen, where you select to play the game, change the configuration, etc, comes up fine. There's a slight pause after clicking 'Play' while BGMain.exe starts and X is set yo 640x480 (I'm guessing this has something to do with DETACH_PROCESS?), but

Having avoided them for some time now, based on compatibility concerns as I began to learn and use Linux full time, I?ve recently gotten the urge to start playing around with some 64-bit distro?s. The benefit of course is running more than the 4Gb (system-wide) limit imposed by a 32-bit OS. In my current system I only have 2Gb (2x1Gb) of RAM so I?m thinking of either adding 4Gb (2x2Gb) or even

I'm running wine 1.1.2 on Gentoo Linux. When playing at least Baldur's Gate I and Baldur's Gate II with Linux 2.6.21 kernel it does run smoothly but changing the kernel to any newer version does the game to run slowly. I have been checking the config of both kernels, and I have tried to get the same in them. I have a GF 6600 GT and nvidia 173.14.09, but I don't think it's the

Hi all ! First, my apologies if this subject has already been discussed but the archives lack a "search" feature, so I've browsed a bit but not a lot before 2001. I browsed the winehq and I found some people have been able to use wine on Deux Ex, and Baldur 1 and 2. I installed the games with windows (they worked fine) and then tried running them with wine under linux (debian

I installed Legend Of Mir 2.6 using WINE. But i cant get it to work..When i launch the exe, my scrrn goes black (like it should) but then nothing happens (normally on windows, after 2 seconds of balck screen, login gate comes up). Any ideas?

Hello everyone, First of all let me say I'm a linux newbie, having only used the OS for a few days. I'm currently experiencing a problem with trying to get Baldur's Gate 1 to run. The install went flawlessly (Ubuntu 8.10, Wine 1.1.8) however when the launcher pops up. No matter what I click it hangs. I've tried all of the windows types in the Wine configuration panel but the

Hi, I run into a consistent crash in the GOG.com version of ToTSC (latest patched version). Specifically when entering house 6 as shown on http://www.forgottenwars.com/bg1/maps/x_0700.jpg Config: Ubuntu 10.10 x64, nVidia driver 270.41.03 kernel 2.6.38, wine 1.3.18 Can someone please check if they're also affected (or not)? I can provide a save game if necessary. Thanks in advance, FD

Recently, I looked at some options implementing unusual file systems in userland. On Linux, there is LUFS and similar stuff which frees one from touching any kernel code. The design is always similar: a generic kernel module forwards calls to a user level daemon and forwards returned results back. The user level daemon implements or serves as a basis for unusual user land filesystem
