winrash and ntservice
by Paul Walker July 22, 2005

July 22, 2005

I just joined this list and noticed the nt service messages (below) I haven't investigated what winrash is, but _assuming_ that you need it as a service on NT, then the problem appears to be that it needs to display windows (or interact with the user somehow). The main problem will be that services run on their own desktop (unique to the service, not the logon, screensaver or iteractive desktops). A message box can be displayed on the interactive desktop by using the MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION flag with MessageBox(). To actually display some more complex UI, you need to create the window on the correct desktop. Check MSDN (msdn.microsoft.com) for details, but the following is what is probably required: 1. Call OpenInputDesktop(). 2. Call SetThreadDesktop() to allow the current thread to use that desktop. 3. Create your windows etc. Note the security risk msdn notes for SetThreadDesktop. This is because the service is probably running as a priviledged user (the LocalSystem account unless specified otherwise). It will need the elevated priviledges to attach to the desktop which will have an ACL that only allows the current logged in user). Hope that's enough to get someone working on this (sorry, I'm not volunteering :-( Robert Shearman wrote: >> >> >> Only on Win95/98/ME. > > > > I thought we'd fixed the problems with running it as a service on NT > so that it could again be run automatically? > Not as far as i know. It was recommended to mark the winrash service as "allowed to interact with desktop" or some such. It didn't help though. //Jakob

Changing DLL imports in wine
by Damjan Jovanovic July 22, 2005

July 22, 2005

I'd like to know if there are any functions in Wine for changing the function pointer values in a DLL's (or, for that matter, an executable's) import table at the time it is loaded. ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs

Buttons in window title bar
by Michael Jung July 22, 2005

July 22, 2005

Hi, since this patch (http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-cvs/2005/07/0168.html) was applied, the buttons in the window title bars are plain squares on my system. I'm wondering if I have a problem with my font setup. Do other people have this problem (You will only see it in desktop mode or in MDI applications though)? Bye, -- Michael Jung mjung(a)iss.tu-darmstadt.de

D3DCMPFUNC fix
by Paul Walker July 22, 2005

July 22, 2005

A tried to run Morrowind (it fails loading the outdoors). I saw a message of unsupported D3DCMPFUNC. So I looked up MSDN and it mentioned defaults, so I've added them. Not sure if they also need to be in the d3d8/ directory too? It didn't fix my problem, but it is probably still useful to have.

printing problems
by josie＠mbstemps.com July 21, 2005

July 21, 2005

Hi I've been running Delphi executables off of Wine and I just installed a default printer to my linux system. It's a miracle but I could print off of my Delphi executable on the first try. The only problem is the margins and page layout are little off. Nothing drastic, but the margins cutoff the first line and about half a character on the left margin. I was wondering if this is a postscript problem and what I could do to fix it? -Josie

wow32 forwards going into the void?
by Marcus Meissner July 21, 2005

July 21, 2005

Hi, dlls/wow32/wow32.spec forwards into our kernel32.dll by named imports. However, the referenced functions are no longer exported by name. Also jsut replacing the function by a number does not seem to work. How to fix? Ciao, Marcus
