Dragon Naturally Speaking - working.
by wino＠piments.com 05 Mar '05

05 Mar '05

Good news and what looks like a first. Dragon Naturally Speaking 4 working under Wine. ======================================= reqd riched32 and comdlg32 native from 98SE Gentoo Linux , 2.6.10-nitro4 kernel wine-20050111 Fresh Wine installation installed IE6 using sidenet Install Dragon from CD no major issues. copy missing dll's ran up Dragon , enter user name , setup sticks at setting mike level but exits cleanly. #wine gentrain.exe picks up user name , dictated training text . It saves the vocab/voix profiles the drops out with 3 repeat errors but the profile is safe #wine natspeak.exe Can now dictate in stand-alone mode as in windoze. I now need some help with the guts of Wine to see if I can capture the keystrokes output by Dragon and pipe it to another Linux thread. Any suggestions on that?

Re: [user/tests/sysparams.c] More correct *MOUSEHOVER* tests (Don't apply)

Hi, no need to apply this one. I shouldn't have checked for ERROR_CALL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED (maybe only at the very first test). Justin's patch seems to be on the right track. Cheers, Paul.

Apparently Win98SE returns 0 without setting last error for the *MOUSEHOVER* ones. Could you incorporate this into your patch? Mine is a bit 'overcomplete' as ERROR_CALL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED will probably never be returned (only for SystemParametersInfoA itself). Shouldn't we also always do a SetLastError(0xdeadbeef) before every call to SystemParametersInfoA? Cheers, Paul.

Drive detection stuff
by Mike Hearn 05 Mar '05

05 Mar '05

So, there are 4 obvious problems with our current drive management code: 1) We add links to the floppy drive. We should blacklist it, as it causes a big delay in the file open dialogs as we poll the drive which sits there spinning its motors naval-gazing. How many people still use floppy disks in 2005 anyway? I'm hoping the answer is "virtually none" 2) We don't add any device symlinks. Some programs need these eg d:: -> /dev/cdrom 3) The artwork in the file pickers sucks ass. Sorry, it does. It's ugly as sin and for some reason the Desktop icon is an arrow, not a desk. This doesn't matter when you only have C: and Z: drives. It does matter when you have 2 CD drives, 2 Windows drives, a floppy and a few other drives. Fixing this is theoretically easy but for some reason it never gets done. If any of you non-coders are reading this and want to contribute then this would be a good way to start. Good artwork already exists, it's just a case of finding it, converting it to the right format and getting the new bitmaps into CVS. 4) We don't detect new drives as they are mounted into the system, eg if I start a Windows program and then realize that my work is actually on a USB key, if I plug that key in Nautilus and GTK+ (and probably KDE) apps will detect it and see it, but we won't. Not even if I restart the app! This is bad. Fixing this is not, in theory, super hard. When HAL detects a new hotplug device it modifies the fstab file and mounts. If we watch the /etc/fstab file for changes and rerun drive detection therefore we can make this all magically work. Problems are: - Who triggers the resync? The wineserver is the obvious choice as there is only 1 per wineprefix but we'd need to integrate FAM support for that - How do we broadcast to apps that the drive definitions changed so we can update the UI, flush any caches etc? thanks -mike

Setting null region for window mask kills wine 20050112
by Kuba Ober 04 Mar '05

04 Mar '05

Hi, I was testing my Qt 3.3.4 application with wine, and it appears that setting a null widget mask via QWidget::setMask(QRegion()) puts wine into an endless loop. It continuously spews complaints that it ran out of gdi heap. I can reproduce it at home and send the actual error message if need be. I presume that this could be reproduced with the GPL qt-win32 port, but I didn't try. Cheers, Kuba Ober

Re: Account for permissions on Win2k - dlls/advapi32/tests/security.c

The other 2 succeed, so it doesn't look like a general w2k problem. Couldn't it be a certain version of the dll? I've had the same issues with shlwapi/registry. Although the majority succeeds now, some 'old' dll's will still fail. Could it be an idea, to have every test (at least 1 in a dll test) tell the version of the tested dll? Or have a test within every dll that does exactly this (version checking). Cheers, Paul.

Should CDLGetLongPathName[AW] be exported by ordinal
by Francois Gouget 04 Mar '05

04 Mar '05

On Windows XP and 2003ES the CDLGetLongPathName[AW] ordinals are 4 and 5 respectively. On Windows 9x, NT4 and Windows 2000 they are 1 and 2 respectively. If Microsoft changed the ordinal of these APIs it means the ordinal does not matter so I'm tempted to post the following patch: Index: dlls/urlmon/urlmon.spec =================================================================== RCS file: /var/cvs/wine/dlls/urlmon/urlmon.spec,v retrieving revision 1.31 diff -u -p -r1.31 urlmon.spec --- dlls/urlmon/urlmon.spec 30 Nov 2004 21:14:21 -0000 1.31 +++ dlls/urlmon/urlmon.spec 23 Feb 2005 10:21:11 -0000 @@ -1,8 +1,8 @@ -1 stub CDLGetLongPathNameA -2 stub CDLGetLongPathNameW @ stub AsyncGetClassBits @ stub AsyncInstallDistributionUnit @ stub BindAsyncMoniker +@ stub CDLGetLongPathNameA +@ stub CDLGetLongPathNameW @ stub CoGetClassObjectFromURL @ stub CoInstall @ stdcall CoInternetCombineUrl(wstr wstr long wstr long ptr long) Yet in Windows 2000 Microsoft went out of its way to assign these ordinals to them so I suspect there is something more to this. Could it be that old versions of Internet Explorer import these APIs by ordinal and that since Windows XP and greater ships with a recent enough version of Internet Explorer Microsoft decided it was no longer necessary to keep the old ordinals for compatibility? What should we do if this turns out to be the case? Do we want to keep the ordinals anyway? I guess that the minimum would be to document this in the spec file. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)free.fr http://fgouget.free.fr/ Linux: It is now safe to turn on your computer.

Wine MIDI Mapper
by Andrew Neil Ramage 04 Mar '05

04 Mar '05

In trying to get a Windows music composition program (www.noteworthycomposer.com) working, I have been unable to hear playbacks of music because the Wine MIDI Mapper does not open. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this problem, and if there is a fix available ? I am using Mandrake 10.0, Gnome 2.4 and Wine-20050211. -- Andrew [hackcoughsniffle] Internal Virus Database corrupt

If you get anything working that way I'll take a look at making an installer that reads all the users settings from the windows registry for something like knopix and maybe look at implementing some of the windows settings in wine e.g. setting desktop wallpaper &co..
