wine users - Dec 2008 - Re: Failure to startup BF1942

Got exactly the same problem! I try to run Battefield1942 v1.6

Do you find a solution since April?

For your information, I have Ubuntu 8.10 (64bits) Linux 2.6.27-9-generic


Code:
$wine --version
wine-1.0.1

$ wine BF1942.exe 
fixme:mixer:ALSA_MixerInit No master control found on HDA ATI HDMI, disabling
mixer

$ winedbg BF1942.exe 
WineDbg starting on pid 0015
fixme:mixer:ALSA_MixerInit No master control found on HDA ATI HDMI, disabling
mixer

Seems to be a bug in Wine, isn't it?

Don't use winedbg - most games check for debuggers present and refuse to
start.
