Created an attachment (id=29280) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=29280) [details] Robots Creative Studio console output
Robots Creative Studio is bundled with several 20th Century Fox DVD film titles.
After installing it and running Robots.exe, a dialog box says "You must install a Windows printer to use the Robots Print Studio". (If it's relevant, I don't have a physical printer connected to my PC.)
Clicking OK to dismiss the dialog box results in a Wine Program Error dialog box. I have attached the console output.
Is there any way to have Wine present a dummy/fake printer for those Windows applications that check for one?
What about cups-pdf? see for example http://packages.ubuntu.com/nl/karmic/cups-pdf -- 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.

It just crashes with a Program Error dialog. The console output seems to be the same as previously. -- 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.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23462 --- Comment #3 from markk(a)clara.co.uk 2010-07-02 06:37:38 --- This is strange! I ran Robots.exe with WINEDEBUG=+relay,+seh,+tid. With that, the program starts up fine! Without specifying WINEDEBUG (i.e., starting it normally) it still crashes every time. -- 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.
