Hi All, I have installed Atomic Bomberman as described here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Atomic_bomberman When I connect 2 PC's running linux via networkcables and a switch, IPX works perfectly. I start the game on both PC's, set PC A to "Start Network game" via IPX, and PC B to "Join network game". Now PC B can see the game of PC A, connect to it, and then play a game of bomberman. No Problems. When one of the 2 PC's is connected via wireless LAN, PC B can't see the game of PC A. Both PC's run arch linux, and the same version of wine and kernel wine-1.3.7 Linux laptop 2.6.35-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Oct 30 19:57:05 UTC 2010 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5670 @ 1.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux I see the following messages on the console: $ wine BM.EXE fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x33f2a8,0x00000000), stub! fixme:dinput:SysMouseAImpl_Acquire Clipping cursor to (0,0)-(640,480) fixme:dsalsa:IDsDriverBufferImpl_SetVolumePan (0x13bbb8,0x13bb28): stub fixme:winsock:is_sockaddr_bound don't know how to tell if IPX socket is bound, assuming it is!

Come to think of it, I also run windows XP on the above 2 laptops. Windows XP shows the same problem. IPX works fine on the wired LAN, and does not work via wireless. Therefore I wonder, is this a hardware problem? Could this be a broadcom driver problem? The wireless cards work fine for IP traffic Where in the following stacks is the problem? -Atomic Bomberman -Wine -Linux kernel -Broadcom linux Driver -Broadcom Wireless card -Atomic Bomberman -Windows kernel -Broadcom windows driver -Broadcom wireless card Best regards, Cedric
Could it be that my wireless router blocks IPX from a wireless card? IPX via the 4 wired ports work fine. I have the following router: linksys WRT54GL Firmware Version: v4.30.7 Best regards, Cedric
I have tested with a laptop with an intel wireless card. (I call this laptop PC C) This works perfectly. PC A is connected via wired network, and serving the game. PC C is connected via wireless. Now I can play the game without any problem. PC C is running knoppix 6.2, wine-1.0.1-174-gc4039bd ,kernel 2.6.31.6 The wireless card: Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100 I think this is not a problem of wine, but rather a problem of the broadcom wireless card, or the broadcom driver. Best regards, Cedric
