wine users - Aug 2004 - Is anyone using X.org instead of XFree86 implementation of X Windows?

I just upgraded my machine from Slackware 9.1 (using XFree86) to Slackware 10.0
which uses X.org instead. A simple notepad.exe gives errors when started. This
did not have this problem under the previous setup. Is anyone using X.org ???

I am using xorg. I switced middle of last week and haven't done much 
testing yet, however I have seen a couple of problems. In one case I'm 
not getting menus correctly in M$ Word. don't know what this means or 
whether it's truly an xorg issue. The other problem I'm seeing is not 
wine specific.

Try this package
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/Wine-20040716-i686-S10.md5?download
If you're building from source, recompile with the X.org headers.

I tried downloading and installing Wine-20040716-i686-S10nodebug.tgz ...
I get the same as before. I'm assuming it is not necessary to restart X if I
have all the WINE applications closed.

Specifically when I click File -> Save and use the drop down box to select a
drive it has no drives listed. I'll tinker some with it tonight. I just had
a few minutes on my break.

You'll have to create some drives, just link $HOME/.wine/dosdevices/y: to
$HOME
and you'll have a Y: driver that corrispnds to your home dir. You can do the
same for all drivers.
