This is a spawn of another issue partly solved by hack: http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=14547&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight In short, I couldn't run Manga Studio with Wine in a Live Session (Live DVD), unless I signed in as superuser, which then pops up a virtual memory control allwoing me to set memory and launch Manga Studio fine. This control doesn't pop up when in non-su mode, and nor do I get the virutal mem warning (see other thread for non-su terminal output) How can I do this for a non-super user mode? I coudn't find the settings in Wine to do this. Or, is it possible there is more to it than virtual memory when running as non-super user? Is this a bug that should be reported?

This control doesn't pop up when in non-su mode, and nor do I get the virutal mem warning (see other thread for non-su terminal output)What is popping up this virtual memory control--the app, or your Live DVD? Wine has no such control. If the popup is coming from the app, and works in Windows but not in Wine, it is a Wine bug.
I just happen to be running live now, just installed Mange Studio while being signed in as su. The first window: Title:Manga Studio Debut Text:Failed to create the virtual memory. the destination drive for creating the virtual memory does not exist or there is insufficient capacity. Check the folder path to create a virtual memory in the Preferences. I hit the ok button, and I get the next window: Title: Preferences Here I choose the virtual memory folder location and set the amount. I hit ok and the program starts. Is this Windows, Wine, or Manga Studio Preferences?
