Porting Device Drivers to Winehq

by John Shillinglaw

Hello, Can anyone point me to documentation/help or tools for disassembling Windows 95 drv and vxd files and/or porting them to wine?? I have a Roland SCP-55 Soundcanvas card (pcmcia ) which is not recognized by linux, and Windows XP ( which I don't like using anyway ) will not recognize the drivers when it prompts for a driver file. Ideally I'd like to decode the windows drivers to help with developing a pure linux driver. Barring that, it seems that I should have better luck with wine since it happly emulates and runs win 95 stuff. However, while I've found plenty in the wine docs about running /porting windows _programs_, almost nothing about what to do with the win 95 *.inf *.drv *.vxd and *.ini that come in the driver package for the pcmcia card. Thanks for the help, John Running 2.6.12-gentoo-r6 and Wine-072505 on an IBM T20 Pentium III Thinkpad.

codevisual2flowchart gui problems

by Vijay Kiran Kamuju

Hi, When i run codevisual2flowchart using wine-20050726. There is no minimize, maximize buttons. The menus are quite big (duoble the size). It spewing out this messages fixme:imm:ImmGetContext (0x10374) STUB fixme:imm:ImmSetCompositeWindow stub I think these functions need to be implemented as most of the IME applicatations and internal imm functions use the above 2 stubbed functions. I think the problem of menu being double size is due to imm stuff. bye, Vijay

Well, I am persuaded now. :-)

That's one of the possibilities, it's not really clear yet what the user interface should be. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

But you possibly knew that already... And who says that it's an application bug? It may just as well be something triggered by some unusual behaviour of Wine. But then it might still be an application bug in that strangely triggered code path after all... Andreas
