[Bug 20240] New: Steam game installer asking for administrator privileges
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20240 Summary: Steam game installer asking for administrator privileges Product: Wine Version: 1.1.30 Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: charlie.andrews(a)tiscali.co.uk Hello! I have steam installed and working well on my Ubuntu Jaunty setup, including a few games. I recently downloaded X3: Terran Conflict, but am having problems starting. When I start the game for the first time, a dialog pops up: TAGES Drivers ------------- The drivers require installation (with an administrator's account)> Do you want to proceed now? I choose 'Yes' and see an error dialog: TAGES Drivers ------------- Unable to proceed (error 32) [or sometimes 1450 or 1723] Then: Egosoft ------- Insufficient priveleges: you must be administrator when you run this application for the first time. Using the latest version from the Wine repo, and the environment created by PlayOnLinux for Steam. I have filed this bug IAW the FAQ. I have tried changing the Windows version from XP to 98 and Vista, to no good effect. Would love to know how this is happening and to get it fixed!

First of all try with vanilla Wine from repo, use prefix created by default. -- 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.

Sorry that's not more help...

This is not a support forum for them. -- 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.

In that case you need to log a bug for steam not installing, and take up this problem with the PlayOnLinux folks. This is not a support forum for them.
Even though POL is used, the message refers to TAGES copy protection which looks like it installs device drivers. I'd be more inclined to say it's a duplicate of bug 10264 which deals with TAGES. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 10264 *** -- 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.
