Huh, that should definitely work. Do you know how to compile wine-staging yourself?

Hmm, that's unfortunate - what distro are you using?

Would you mind setting up a compilation as a background task? When that's done we would just make a minor tweak to dlls/mountmgr.sys/device.c:get_fs_flags() to bypass the filesystem check. It's also possible that for some reason Total Commander is going through the other pathway in ntdll, but we can also test that pretty easily.

What exactly did you have for compilation as a background task?

Step #1 would be to compile wine-staging exactly as-is, but if you don't want to chew up all your processing then just use regular make (no make -jCOUNT). You can run it overnight if you like, there's no rush.

Step #2: When it's done we can tweak the one file (dlls/mountmgr.sys/device.c) and then run make again (just don't run "make clean"). In this case that would be to just replace get_fs_flags() with this: static DWORD get_fs_flags( struct volume *volume ) { return FILE_SUPPORTS_REPARSE_POINTS; }

--- Comment #12 from Erich E. Hoover erich.e.hoover@gmail.com --- Actually, thinking about this more that doesn't make any sense - that routine was reporting a lack of symlinks before. Would you mind giving me a directory listing where you have a link (ls -halt) and a screenshot of what you're expecting in Total Commander?

--- Comment #13 from Erich E. Hoover erich.e.hoover@gmail.com --- *sigh* I actually know what this is, I keep making this mistake over and over again and it continues to drive me nuts. readlink() does not actually NULL-terminate strings, so when I updated some of these routines and forgot to take that into account it means that in certain cases (depending on what you have in memory) that I'm attempting to operate on /some/path/that/existsGARBAGE instead of /some/path/that/exists. Zeb, I'll give you an update as soon as I have a chance this evening.
