Is it time to delete wineinstall?
by Dan Kegel 18 Nov '04

18 Nov '04

Is wineinstall needed anymore? README seems to indicate you can install Wine just fine without it. - Dan -- Trying to get a job as a c++ developer? See http://kegel.com/academy/getting-hired.html

replace a wrong fixme in dlls/winmm/playsound.c
by Rémi Assailly 18 Nov '04

18 Nov '04

I tested a software ( a monopoly game ) and the error was that a sound was still playing so I think that is not a wine bug. Before submitting this patch to wine-patches I would like to know what do you think about it, what should be WARN, FIXME, if choosing ERR to all is correct or if some cases are useless.

The config file is meant to go ASAP, so that is a good thing. Most users use RPMs and are quite happy with them, and it causes less support hassle. > It may be a redundant feature, but "configure/ make/ > make install" is definately not a replacement for > "ease of use." ;) Then as other have said wineinstall should just contain ./configure && make && su -c 'make install' Ivan. ____________________________________________________________ Libero ADSL: navighi gratis a 1.2 Mega, senza canone e costi di attivazione.

profiling GTA4. question about polling
by Brian Gunlogson 17 Nov '04

17 Nov '04

GTA4 (Grand Theft Auto: Vice City) runs on Wine with no additional tinkering! Albeit horribly slow. A profile of GTA shows that only one D3D function (drawStridedSlow) needs major optimization. According to the oprofile results, polling seems to be the major bottleneck. (the top of a flat profile generated with oprofile) samples % image name app name symbol name 2177620 14.0147 d3d8.dll.so wine-preloader drawStridedSlow 1681661 10.8228 vmlinux vmlinux do_pollfd 1025198 6.5980 vmlinux vmlinux pipe_poll 515461 3.3174 vmlinux vmlinux add_wait_queue 423342 2.7245 vmlinux vmlinux poll_freewait 423185 2.7235 vmlinux vmlinux __pollwait 354490 2.2814 vmlinux vmlinux fput 285473 1.8372 vmlinux vmlinux sys_poll I'd like to optimize this. Any hints? Brian G __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The all-new My Yahoo! - Get yours free! http://my.yahoo.com

wineprefixcreate hang
by Olive Esseret 17 Nov '04

17 Nov '04

I do not know if this question is appropriate here; so please excuse me if it is not (I have not had any answer elsewhere) On Mdk10.1 the following command (which is called by wineprefixcreate and so also by wineinstall) never terminate. wine rundll32 setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 wine.inf Although this happens most of the time, it does not appears every time and did not appeard on Mdk10.0. If it is not possible to make it works, anyone has an idea on how to do the things by hands? Olive

Supported Apps
by Tom 17 Nov '04

17 Nov '04

Hello All, Would anyone reject to the idea of changing "Tucows top" to "License" and listing the licence on the supported page? I was looking over this page and the Tucows rankings have changed, and some of the apps that we have listed are no longer in the top 100 ranking at Tucows. Tom

incomplete relay when accessed from winedbg
by Bill Medland 17 Nov '04

17 Nov '04

Guys Any chance of help on this? I am trying to figure out why some numbers are misformatted through Crystal Reports ToText function. (e.g. 6..0 instead of 599.95) I tried to turn +relay on from within winedbg so that I could see just what functions got called. All that relay gave me was "window proc", "hook proc" and wineps calls; no ntdll or anything else. Any idea why it isn't giving me everything?

appdb linux links
by James Hawkins 17 Nov '04

17 Nov '04

One of my conceptions of wine is as a stepping stone for users switching over to linux from windows that still only feel comfortable with windows apps or those that don't know what linux apps are available. What do you think about adding a 'Similar Linux Application' link or section to each windows app where applicable that would point them in the direction of the linux equivalent of the windows app and thus help with the transition process? They might not necessarily use the app, but at least they'll be more aware. What are some ideas about this? -- James Hawkins
