Hi. I'm trying to run Spore, and I noticed that this patch is supposed to solve the problem where the server can't be found: http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2008-September/061125.html Pardon my ignorance, but how do I use it? I have searched for information about this, but to no avail. Also, which version of GIT should I use? Found a lot of different packages here: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/debian/ (I use Debian Lenny) Thanks in advance, Ike

Thanks. I wonder why I missed that, as I am positive I searched the entire WineHQ site... Anyway, that helped me a bit on my way, but I still can't figure out what I'm supposed to do. Since the patch in question wasn't distributed as a file, but as text in a mail, should I create a file, copy the text to that file, and run Code: patch -p1 < (name of file) ?
Code: patch -p1 < sporepatch.diff patching file dlls/winhttp/net.c Hunk #1 FAILED at 464. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file dlls/winhttp/net.c.rej patching file dlls/winhttp/request.c Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n] What now?
Yeah. I haven't checked if it works, but I will when I get home. I just got a tad suspicious, 'cause I don't know why it's patched. Oh well, I don't have to know. Just hope it works. :P

This is the terminal output I get: Lots of messages like this one: Code: fixme:ntdll:RtlInitializeCriticalSectionEx (0x70dae3b0,4000,0x04000000) semi-stub and then Code: fixme:winsock:WSAIoctl unsupported WS_IOCTL cmd (9800012c) fixme:winsock:WSAIoctl unsupported WS_IOCTL cmd (9800012c) err:listview:LISTVIEW_WindowProc unknown msg 108a wp=00000000 lp=0290f7a8
