PulseAudio as a sound output?

by King InuYasha

I would like to suggest that eventually Wine would support PulseAudio as a sound output natively. I am already aware of Wine supporting ESD, which PulseAudio can use, but supporting PulseAudio natively I think would be much better.

1.0 Bugs - Microsoft Office 2003

by EA Durbin

I was able to get around bug 9023 with a patch applied to the appdb and I did some further testing in Office 2003 today. Initially I'm prompted to activate my copy of microsoft office 2003, and both means of activating the application are broken in wine due to bugs 9943 and 9944. Then I tried to open VBA inside of Office and was prompted with a dialog stating unable to open macro storage(bug 8795). The only real reason I use Microsoft Office over Open Office is the need for VBA integration. I think we should add these bugs to the 1.0 target 9943 9944 8795 _________________________________________________________________ Peek-a-boo FREE Tricks & Treats for You! http://www.reallivemoms.com?ocid=TXT_TAGHM&loc=us

If anyone is interested in making #winehq a place that is more pleasant, I would urge them to try to accomplish what I suggest in the last paragraph (read the rest for more explanation). I'll copy&paste from a previous discussion about #winehq problems: Though formulating proper communication guidelines is some work (one can borrow text and wisdom from projects that may have something like this; freenode, fedora, ubuntu, gentoo, debian come to mind), the real work is discussing it, asking everyone whose comments matter and getting everyone to agree. > > On Thursday 16 August 2007 20:27:04 Jonathan Challinger wrote: > > > but then what? How would they be enforced? Obviously then the people with the authority will support the needed enforcement. But IMHO the best atmosphere is when nobody needs to wield their powers. We have #winehq-social where anything can be discussed and nobody gets banned (unless they do advertisement or/and malware). Another problem is that we don't have a rule for when/how to unban. So if we could agree on rules for when and how to ban and unban, it would be a good start and our community should become a bit more pleasant. Jan

RE: Wine 1.0 bugs, release criteria

by Karl Relton

I would like consideration given to http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3739 http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4362 I would imagine Adobe PhotoDeluxe might be quite common among home users (who may get a copy with their digital camera, and not fork out for full Photoshop). The other bug has a proposed fix - and something of a testcase to prove it. Its just a matter of getting it squared up and applied. Regards Karl
