wine users - Dec 2008 - CD/DVD not found

Hello everybody,

I'm new to wine and tried to run the adventure "So Blonde". The
installation ends successfully and the game should run under wine
(http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14264&iTestingId=33866).

But when I try to start the game, it says that there is no DVD in the drive and
I have to put the original DVD in it (I have the original game...). When I look
into the "winecfg" my CD ROM is as "D:" detected.

With winedbg I got this message:

I am using Ubuntu 8.1 with wine 1.1.11. 

Thanks a lot.

Looks like some copy-protection driver tries to do something that's not
implemented in Wine.

The only thing you can do in this case is to use "no-cd" patch for
your game.

You are right. With the no cd crack it works. Thanks a lot.
