wine users - Dec 2003 - Alsa problems

Hi,
   I'm trying out a current demo of Codeweavers Crossover Office and ran
into problems with Alsa. I posted this on the Codeweavers dission list
but got no responses. I looked in Wine's Bugzilla but didn't find
anything about this. I suspect it's new since Alsa just started it's
1.0.0rcX series this week. I'll post here to Wine-Users first, and then
to Wine-Devel if necessary.

Wine identifies itself as:

bash-2.05b$ /opt/cxoffice/bin/wine -version
Wine 20030911
bash-2.05b$ 

Which seems pretty new. However, when attempting to run a game using
Alsa I get the following messages:

configurations

"Drivers" = "winealsa.drv"    ; for ALSA users
;"Drivers" = "winejack.drv"    ; for Jack sound server

;"Drivers" = "wineaudioio.drv" ; for Solaris machines
;"Drivers" = ""                ; to disable sound
"WaveMapper" = "msacm.drv"
"MidiMapper" = "midimap.drv"

I posted this info on Alsa-Devel and Takashi-san relied with the
following info:

<SNIP>
it's a very old symbol used only in ALSA 0.5.x.
most likely the detection code in wine is broken, typically checking
only SND_MINOR_VERSION and not checking SND_MAJOR_VERSION.
if so, the wine driver believes that it's a 0.5.x, since the minor
version is 0 now.
<SNIP>

1) Can anyone else verify this?

2) Has this been fixed since the version I'm using?

Thanks,
Mark

This should be fixed soon, in the mean time try setting wine to use oss.

If this is ok with cxoffice, give a try to my Alsa 1.0 support patch
for Wine.
