[Bug 1882] Bridge Base Online not running properly
by Wine Bugs Oct. 28, 2005

Oct. 28, 2005

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1882 ------- Additional Comments From sbhollingsworth(a)gmail.com 2005-28-10 12:10 ------- Good news! The team at Bridge Base Online have addressed some the incompatibilities with wine in their latest release. From personal experience and online reports I know that their fixes work with wine at least as early as 20050725 and also work with 0.9. >From what I understand the information below only applies to the current beta test software. In the future the standard version downloaded from BBO will have these changes rolled in. You can get more about running BBO on linux at the BBO forum: http://forums.bridgebase.com/index.php?s=8cac7ad0e101a86c0d2d9acf5aa457f3&s… Here's an excerpt from the forum, a short HOWTO from Pierre Couzy (pico on BBO): HowTo : install bbo on linux 1/ Go to www.winehq.com and download wine if you don't have it on your system already. 2/ Grab a copy of Symbol.ttf. You'll need this font to properly display the suit symbols. Copy it in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/symbol (you'll have to manually create the symbol folder) 3/ Download bbo_setup.exe (http://www.bridgebase.com/450beta/bbo450_setup.exe as the time of writing, but I guess the normal version will work pretty soon) 4/ Launch a terminal and type : wine bbo_setup.exe (bbo450_setup.exe if you're using the beta version). This will launch the installer. Proceed as if you were installing under Windows. 5/ Grab the patched executable (again, this step might be useless in the next version of bbo) at http://www.bridgebase.com/450beta/LinuxNetBridgeVue.zip Unpack it, you'll get an executable file, copy it to ~/.wine/drive_c/Bridge\ Base\ Online 6/ Launch the executable from a shell : wine NetBridgeVu.exe (or LinuxNetBridgeVue.exe for the next weeks). In case you don't find the executable, it's located in ~/.wine/drive_c/WhateverFolderYouUsedForTheInstall 7/ You're done. Caveat : Monitor the free memory on your system when playing, you might have to quit and re-launch bbo from time to time, there are some memory leaks probably due to Wine. On my machine (PIII 700, 384 Mo, Ubuntu) I have to do this about every hour. If you have a problem, you can contact me on BBO (pico) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 3686] New: Display fonts according to fonts.conf
by Wine Bugs Oct. 28, 2005

Oct. 28, 2005

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3686 Summary: Display fonts according to fonts.conf Product: Wine Version: CVS Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: wine-gui AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: willie(a)froq.net Why doesn't Wine simply try to follow ~/fonts.conf for hinting/ antialiasing/ sub-pixel hinting/ substitutes/ excluded range if it exists? I know that Wine tries to be smart, guessing what settings would be best, but that's usually neither needed nor wanted. That's why there is a config file for stuff like that. Wine simply stands out, because it renders fonts in a completely different fashion compared to all native apps (eg, I use medium hinting, no sub-pixel hinting and anti-aliasing for native apps, but Wine only uses hinting). Even if it would respect those setting, Wine would still look odd, because the font size doesn't match at all, but I think that's a different bug/ issue (for Qt/ KDE, GTK2, Fox, Java, Enlightenment and Wx, font size 9 is the same - for Wine, it's much smaller, about 30% I'd say). AFAIR, Wine has a XML implementation, couldn't that be used to parse fonts.conf? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 3685] New: DX Garbled Text
by Wine Bugs Oct. 28, 2005

Oct. 28, 2005

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3685 Summary: DX Garbled Text Product: Wine Version: 0.9 Platform: PC URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=964 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: elephanthunter(a)gmail.com Soldat's DirectX is displaying garbled text with wine, making it useless as a multiplayer game (but still fun to play singleplayer.) Maybe it has to do with something funky in the Jedi DX headers? Here's a screenshot: http://appdb.winehq.org/appimage.php?id=1076 The game's menu is working fine. I think this is because it uses regular controls instead of DX to display. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
