> > Hi All & Austin, > > who typed.... > > It has been a while since I have tried WINE. Tell me/us, what games you > are running & what tweaks yall made-if any? I would like to run these applications which I have so far not found in the wine homepage to be supported: Rebirth 1.0 audio application, audio runs GOOD, but screen addressment Rebirth 2.01 audio application, audio runs GOOD, but screen addressment VGA Planets Winplan 3.5 front screen loads, but cannot play game Planets 4 front screen loads, but cannot play game Incubation (Battle Isle 4) title loads, but no sound 688i Hunter Killer title loads from cd, but gets stuck on front screen, no sound My versions are all registered and original so that is not sort of a shareware restriction, but a problem of tweak options for wine. i also stand in front of a wall when it comes to that the audio WORKS for the sound applications, but does not for the games. WONDER BIG TIME. Hello Austin!! I am currently trying out Wine as well. The programs I use (Rebirth and VGA Planets/Winplan) do work in part, but sort of problem lies in the SCREEN ADDRESSING. how should I twiddle that? example: appearance of NTpassword is under native windoze: user1 password1 info1 user2 password2 info2 user3 password3 info3 user4 password4 info4 user5 password5 info5 but under wine it is mixed up, sort of like this: user5 password2 info1 user1 password3 info2 user2 password4 info3 user3 password5 info4 user4 password1 info5 how can i fix that? it appears to be not a program, but a wine error. hope we can work this out together! -- *º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨¨*¤ =Oliver(a)home= *º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨*¤ I http://www.bmw-roadster.de/Friends/Olli/olli.html I I http://www.bmw-roadster.de/Friends/friends.html I I http://groups.yahoo.com/group/VGAP-93 I I http://home.t-online.de/home/spacecraft.portal I >>> Telek0ma iBBMS - soon back online +49.4503.TRSi1/TRSi2 <<<

solaris configure strangness

Hi list. Due to seeing other people looking at it, I decided to try and compile WINE on solaris 2.8 sparc. During configure I get the following messages: checking for ar... ar configure: WARNING: X11/XKBlib.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: X11/XKBlib.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: X11/XKBlib.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result configure: WARNING: XShape extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: DGA extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: XFree86 VMODE extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: XVideo extension not found, Wine will be built without it configure: WARNING: net/if.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: net/if.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: net/if.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: netinet/ip.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result configure: WARNING: resolv.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: resolv.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: resolv.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result ...

VirtualQuery problem... maybe
by Max 17 Jul '02

17 Jul '02

After 2 weeks debugging between window$ and wine (sigh), I found a different behaviour of VirtualQuery function : The app queries info about some pages in its code (really dunno why....); in PROTECT field of BASIC_MEMORY_INFO, windows returns a 0x20 value (EXECUTE_READ), but wine returns 0x08 (WRITE_COPY), causing app to hang. I guess there's an error somewhere, as the required info belongs to executable code, so at least should be active some EXECUTE flag; btw, my app checks only that the page has not active NO_ACCESS, WRITECOPY and PAGE_GUARD flags, and behaves badly if find one of them. As a check, I only add an *protect = *protect & 0xffff7fff to GetWin32Prot code, taking so off the WRITECOPY flag only, and the app began starting. As I don't know about anything of linux memory protections (sigh), the question is : is there someone with wnough skllls that want to check it ? :-) Regards Max

CxxFrameHandler problem
by Steven Edwards 17 Jul '02

17 Jul '02

If anyone is working on the CxxFrameHandler I have two applications I have been working on that may help in testing/tracking down the problems. Currently both WinCVS and geoshell suffer from this problem. Both applications are GPL so if you need to look at the source to find out what is going on you can. fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x40473df4,0x40585e54,0x40473a80,0x40473a1c):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x40473a20,0x40585e54,0x404736ac,0x40473648):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x4047364c,0x40585e54,0x404732d8,0x40473274):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x40473278,0x40585e54,0x40472f04,0x40472ea0):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x40472ea4,0x40585e54,0x40472b30,0x40472acc):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x40472ad0,0x40585e54,0x4047275c,0x404726f8):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x404726fc,0x40585e54,0x40472388,0x40472324):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x40472328,0x40585e54,0x40471fb4,0x40471f50):stub? fixme:msvcrt:__CxxFrameHandler (0x40471f54,0x40585e54,0x40471be0,0x40471b7c):stub? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Well, to directly answer your question - no, I'm not sure what it means. But I see the same thing when I compile on sparc, and it doesn't seem to have any obvious impact on things... Warren

fix for bug #24
by Michael Stefaniuc 17 Jul '02

17 Jul '02

Hello, at least the attached patch fixes the problem described in the summary of bug #24 (in the description there are some other problems described too. That's why i CC wine-devel to let one of the bugzilla guru's decide how to proceed with that bug report). ImageList_Remove when called to remove all images on an empty ImageList returns TRUE. Checked with the ControlSpy on Windows 98SE (MSDN wasn't helpfull in this case). Changelog: - Michael Stefaniuc <mstefani(a)redhat.com> ImageList_Remove returns TRUE when removing all images of an empty ImageList bye michael -- Michael Stefaniuc Tel.: +49-711-96437-199 System Administration Fax.: +49-711-96437-111 Red Hat GmbH Email: mstefani(a)redhat.com Hauptstaetterstr. 58 http://www.redhat.de/ D-70178 Stuttgart

programs/winetest/wine.xs - alloc_thunk()
by Gregg Mattinson 17 Jul '02

17 Jul '02

In programs/winetest/wine.xs, there is a function alloc_thunk(). Currently, there is only an implementation for i386. I have created an implementation for sparc, but I can't figure out how to test it. Does anyone know how this function gets called, or if it is still used? I tried "wine winetest.exe.so tests/wine.pl" and that calls some of the other functions in wine.xs, but not alloc_thunk(). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Gregg Mattinson Co-op Developer Sun Microsystems of Canada

I forgot pressing control when scrolling down in Emacs. Usually I detect this myself. This time obviously not. Thanks.

Upgrade your autoconf? <g> Seriously, the reason we have the generated configure in CVS is so that most people never need to worry about autoconf at all. Conversely, I think it's quite reasonable to ask the few developers that need to change configure to install the latest autoconf, so that we don't have to worry about compatibility. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com
