--- Comment #1 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net 2008-05-03 06:08:39 --- Hello,
--- quote --- When run thus it does work, however; it tries to create an instance of a wuapi.dll class, which is not registered in Wine. When I use a native dll from XP and register it the console output changes saying no instance could be created. The installer then says no updates could be found. --- quote ---
The windows update route isn't going to work anyway.
--- quote --- The setup program for Windows Media Player 11 tries to validate Windows if the version is set to XP, and this fails. There was talk some time ago about an ntlm_auth patch that would allow the validation, but it fails for me even though I have the correct version of Samba installed. --- quote ---
Don't know what this "talk" was about ... but the WGA check for Windows XP config is more complicated. Forget about "Vista" config (which omits the WGA check) or patched legitlibm.dll or patched wmp11 installer.
The easiest way to go is to have the installer extract its payload to some temp directory with "wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe" /C" commandline.
Apply the obligatory 'sh winetricks volnum' before next steps (bug 5351, now deferred .. to be fixed after wine 1.0, which is unfortunate).
Then you would run "wmfdist11" and "wmp11" from that directory.
Unfortunately you then run into other wine showstopper bugs. Wintrust catalog support (bug 9929, bug 6194 ought to be the same). Interestingly the dreaded gdi deadlock (bug 7653 = ought to be fixed) can be reproduced here too.
