http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19939 Summary: SRCDS - Console only Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: kernel32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: laurikoivunen(a)hotmail.com While using SRCDS (valve's Source Dedicated Server) over wine you are required to use X even if one issues -console in the program parameters (will launch a wine console). This is extremely frustrating because then you also need to use X to even see something on the console window. I found a workaround. Hack kernel32's AllocConsole to just return true and make something like this with GetNumberOfConsoleInputEvents: ================ BOOL WINAPI GetNumberOfConsoleInputEvents( HANDLE handle, LPDWORD nrofevents ) { if (nrofevents) *nrofevents = 0; return TRUE; } ================ .. and issue export DISPLAY='' This will allow running the server in console only mode but this naturally disables text input. My C skills are nonexistent so I am asking here if a wine developer could make this work. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
