Hey there. This is my 1st post here, so try n bare with me :D I am using wine-1.1.30 on sid unstable Debian system. I wanted to start a virtual box for my game, anarchy online, but virtual desktop is not comming up unless i change my ~/.wine forlder to root privileges and use sudo for my wine game to start. I am so freaking afraid to let wine to open as a root user that im giving tests without an inet connection. Is there a way to start a virtual desktop without using root commands? If you need additional info, please supply me the commands. Thanks
sounds like you installed Wine as root.. or something... I'd try removing Wine and reinstalling it as your normal user
Yep, indeed, cause aptitude or apt-get needs root privileges
the script im using in order to run the game is Code: #!/bin/bash cd /home/spypower/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Anarchy\ Online/ WINEPREFIX="/home/spypower/.ies4linux/ie6" sudo schedtool -a 0xf -e nice -20 wine "Anarchy.exe" but nice needs also sudo command and in order to open the virtual window needs also sudo. Is there a way to eliminate sudo from nice and virtual window needs?
Thanks for your help there oiaohm. The link Code: http://www.manpagez.com/man/8/renice/ leads to a missing php. I will search it from another site so dont worry bout it. So you actually say to me that i need to write more command lines and separate them as #renicing #running the application Also, the applications that are being running with root privilege are about 100 PID on my system. ( i think there are some :/ ) Is there any way other than renicing to squeeze more my Linux to accelerate opengl (and.. i know.. direct3d although it can support it)?
