wine users - Jan 2009 - SafeDisc copy protection

Hello all.

I am trying to run a legitimate copy of an MSWin game under wine. The game is
NHL 2002 and according to this site
(http://www.daemon-tools.cc/gamedb.php?letter=N), it comes with SafeDisc version
2.40. I tried to search around a little more and I have no reason to doubt this.
I found out, that since wine version 0.9.something only SafeDisc version 1 is
supported. I found this page (http://wiki.winehq.org/SafeDisc) at winehq, but I
cannot tell from the linked bugs, if version 2 should already be supported or
not. I have wine version 1.1.10 and it appears to be not working. Is this
correct?

TIA, SiKing.

Should work just fine under resent Wine versions.

However because lots of things keep changing in Wine some versions might be
broken (not being able to run SafeDisk). For example current Wine version
can't run game protected with SafeDisk 3.
