--- Comment #25 from donkyhotay donkjunk@softhome.net 2009-02-06 11:10:05 --- I have this problem with version 1.1.14 of wine on ubuntu hardy heron (64bit) as well. You can work around the problem by disabling sound in winecfg which allows the program to actually launch however then you are playing without sound. I was able to play homeworld flawlessly about 2 maybe 3 years ago with around (think I was using dapper but may have been edgy at the time) so I tried using old versions of wine and tried going back to 0.9.37 which is the oldest version I could find that would work on 64bit however it still failed. I suspect this problem might be caused by something that changed outside of wine such as the sound system or maybe the kernel. I did test on a 32bit hardy heron system I have available but there were no changes. If someone has a spare system available it might be a good idea to test this program with an older kernel, sound system and wine version (such as a clean edgy install or something comparable) and if it works then slowly update the kernel, wine versions and sound system manually to determine exactly where the break occurs.
