Re: [PATCH] ./tools/wineinstall *correct (.diff) format*

by Speeddymon

well something isn't right with the current wineinstall, because I installed wine to the default directories, and it wasn't finding libntdll.dll.so until after I added $libdir/wine. I'm not sure why that happened, I will do some checking tonight and find out why it wasn't finding the file. I'm thinking maybe it added $libdir to ld.so.conf but didnt run ldconfig... ? I will check that out tonight and a couple other possibilities and let you know the outcome tomorrow... --- Alexandre Julliard <julliard(a)winehq.com> wrote: > $libdir/wine must not be added to ld.so.conf.

Hi Bill, If you're using client side TT fonts and the euro symbol glyph is in the fonts then displaying on the XServer should just work. As for printing, I'm working on downloading TT fonts to the printer at the moment which will mean we'll be able to print the thing as well. Huw.

The Euro symbol

by Medland, Bill

I am looking into getting the Euro symbol (Cp1252 0x80 ie U20ac) to display (and print) from Wine programs. I am running RedHat 7.1. From my quick literature search it looks to me like it isn't going to be easy. Am I being too pessimistic? Are there people out there who have been using it for ages? TIA Bill

Users have to set the WINEDLLPATH variable if Wine is not installed in the directory that was specified with --prefix (which shouldn't happen with wineinstall). -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.com

Re: internet explorer regression [correction]

by Michael Cardenas

Correction, there was not a regression. Apparently this bug only happens in the IE which comes bundled with pre-sr1 versions of office.

The above link has almost all the information (it doesn't have maj/min versions for Win3.x). If I've got this right, then the following table should summarise the data: dwMajorVersion dwMinorVersion dwPlatformID Win3x+Win32s ? ? VER_PLATFORM_WIN32s Win95 4 0 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_WINDOWS Win98 4 10 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_WINDOWS WinME 4 90 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_WINDOWS NT3.51 3 51 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT NT4.0 4 0 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT Win2k 5 0 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT WINXP 5 1 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT WIN.NET 5 1 VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT So, NT3.51 and NT4.0 should both fail the above WIN98_PLUS test (as version.dwPlatformId != VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_WINDOWS). If the test is (Major == 4, Minor > 0) then this would include NT4.0, or am I missing something? > Is something in the test causing a failure? > I've tested them on win2k and win98 (the only real Microsoft OS that I have > access too) Nothing's going wrong. I'm not testing these against any real MS OS, but I came across the code and was curious :) Cheers, Paul. ---- Paul Millar

Re: small patch for ./tools/wineinstall

by Speeddymon

alright thanks, the reason i thought you needed internet/cvs was because of the way that the winehq patch-making page was worded...it says to use cvs diff (instead of regular diff). I thoguht that there may be a difference in the 2, so I didnt want to make the diffs with diff when they required cvs diff. But now that I know, i will submit in diff format... Maybe the winehq site maintainer (alexandre?) could make that a little more clear (for us patch-contributing newbies/relative newbies) --- Tony Lambregts <tony_lambregts(a)telusplanet.net> wrote: > Speeddymon wrote: > > >as I have said a couple times, i dont have any way > to > >make the proper diff's due to the fact that I have > no > >internet at home, thanks again for making them for > me, > >I will be submitting the 2 diff's tomorrow (can't > do > >it here due to the fact that this computer is at > >compusa and has downloading disabled) > > > >Would there be anyone willing to make diff's for me > >when I have a patch to post? if so, could you > please > >email me directly so I know who to talk to? > > > >Thanks in advance > > > Well I would be glad to make diffs for you but it > really is not required > that you have CVS or the Internet to make propper > diffs. > > diff -u wineinstall.old wineinstall > > wineinstall.dif > > Where wineinstall.old is the original file (that you > saved somewhere or > got from the tarball) and wineinstall is the file > with your changes. > "man diff" will give you more information but thats > about all that you > need to know. > > You can edit the wineinstall.dif to get rid of the > .old extention but > I'm not sure its required.
