In the meantime, you may still + need to grab some real DLL files to fool these apps with. + </para> + <para> + There are of course DLLs that Wine does not currently implement + very well (or at all). If you do not have a real Windows you can + copy necessary DLLs from, you can always get some from one of the + Windows DLL archive sites that can be found via internet search + engine.

Modern video cards, namely anything + with over 8MB of memory, have no problem using a full 24 or 32-bit + depth. + </para> + <para> + The next few settings primarily affect games and are somewhat + self-explanatory.

There's lots of + reasons you might want to do that, not the least of which + includes it's easier to play the game if the cursor is + confined to a smaller area. The other reason to turn this + option on is for more precise control of the mouse - Wine + warps the location of the mouse to mimic the way Windows + works. Similarly, "desktop double buffering" allows for + smoother updates to the screen, which games can benefit from, + and the default is to leave it turned on. The tradeoff is + increased memory use. + </para> + <para> + You may find it helpful to <emphasis>Emulate a virtual + desktop</emphasis>. + In this case, all programs will run in a separate window. You + may find this useful as a way to test buggy games that change + (possibly unsuccessfully) the screen resolution. Confining them + to a window can allow for more control over them at the possible + expense of decreased usability. Sizes you might want to try are + 640x480 (the default) or 800x600. + </para> + <para> + Finally, you can configure some Direct3D settings. For the + most part these settings are detected automatically, but you + can force them to behave in a specific manner. Some games + attempt to probe the underlying system to see if it supports + specific features. By turning these off Wine won't report + the ability to render games in a certain way.

Instead, Unix chose to go the - much better way of having one single uniform directory tree - (starting with the root directory - <filename>/</filename>), which has various storage devices - such as e.g. harddisk partitions appended at various directory - locations within the tree (an example would be - <filename>/data1/mywork</filename>, which is the first data - partition mounted/attached to a directory called data1 in the - root directory <filename>/</filename>; mywork is a sub - directory of the data partition file system that's mounted - under <filename>/data1</filename>). - In Unix, the Windows example document mentioned above could e.g. - be accessed by the name of - <filename>/data1/mywork/mydocument.txt</filename>, - provided that the administrator decided to mount (attach) the first - data partition at the directory /data1 inside the Unix - directory tree. Note that in Unix, the administrator can - <emphasis>choose</emphasis> any custom partition location he - wants (here, <filename>/data1</filename>), whereas in Windows the system - <emphasis>selects</emphasis> any drive letter it deems - suitable for the first data partition (here, - <filename>D:</filename>), and, even worse, if there is some - change in partition order, Windows automatically - <emphasis>changes</emphasis> the drive letter, and you might - suddenly find yourself with a first data partition at drive - letter <filename>E:</filename>, with all the file naming and - referencing confusion that entails. Thus, the Windows way of - using ever-changing drive letters is <emphasis>clearly - inferior</emphasis> to the Unix way of assigning - <emphasis>fixed</emphasis> directory tree locations for every - data storage medium. - As we'll see soon, fortunately this Windows limitation of - changing drive letters doesn't affect us in Wine at all, since - we can properly map <emphasis>never-changing</emphasis> drive letters to <emphasis>fixed</emphasis> locations inside the Unix directory tree (and even if the location of the respective Unix directory changes, we can still simply update the Wine drive mapping to reflect the updated location and at the same time keep the original drive letter). - </para> - <para> - OK, now that we know some theory about Windows and Unix drive - and filename mapping, it's probably time to ask how Wine - achieves the magic of mapping a Unix directory location to a - Windows drive... - </para> - <para> - Wine chose to do the following: - In Wine, you don't assign some real physical storage medium - (such as a harddisk partition or similar) to each drive letter - mapping entry. - Instead, you choose certain sub directory trees inside the Unix - directory tree (that starts with <filename>/</filename>) that - you would like to assign a drive letter to. - </para> - <para> - Note that for every Unix sub directory tree that you intend to - start Windows programs in, it is <emphasis>absolutely - required</emphasis> to have a Wine drive mapping entry: - </para> - <para> - For example, if you had a publicly writable <quote>Windows - directory space</quote> under <filename>/usr/mywine</filename>, then in order to be - able to access this sub directory tree from Wine, you should - have a drive mapping entry that maps a certain drive letter - (for example, let's take drive letter <filename>P:</filename>) - either to <filename>/usr/mywine</filename> or <filename>/usr</filename> (to also access any directories belonging to the parent directory) or <filename>/</filename> (to also access any directory whatsoever on this system by this drive letter mapping).

This can be done by either changing the user that - mounts the FAT filesystem or by explicitly changing the permissions - that the FAT filesystem is mounted with. The permissions are - inherited from the process that mounts the FAT filesystem. Since the - process that mounts the FAT filesystem is usually a startup script - running as root the FAT filesystem inherits root's permissions. This - results in the files on the FAT filesystem having permissions similar - to files created by root.

Parts of - the original FAT filesystem can be copied so that the - program can safely work with those copied parts while - the program continues to directly read the remaining - parts.

On this system - the FAT filesystem has default permissions which should not - be changed for security reasons or cannot be changed due to - lack of root access.
