Hello guys
Installed wine yesterday to resume some old memories with B&W. I followed the wine config guide on www.winehq.org, step by step, but anyhow I get this error message:
Code: | $ wine /mnt/cdrom/Setup.exe
Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory '/home/anders', starting in the Windows directory.
fixme:ntdll:NtQueryVolumeInformationFile device info not properly supported on this platform
fixme:file:get_default_drive_device auto detection of DOS devices not supported on this platform
fixme:cdrom:CDROM_GetInterfaceInfo not implemented
err:font:ReadFontDir Can't open directory "/home/anders/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Fonts"
wine: Unhandled exception (thread 0009) |
The "install shield" process window appears, get locked right in the middle of the screen, and stays there untill I reboot. The cpu goes up to 99% and also stays there untill reboot.
I am really green with wine , so I dont got a clue about any of this messages. I've searched around a little about it, but it dont seem like anyone got the same error though.
I run the debug, but that gave me nothing but numbers.
Any answer are appreciated.

Hi,
Well, I am also new to Wine, currently trying to get Warcraft2 going. One thing I found that seemed to solve a lot of problems was using the winesetuptk program. Very useful to setup wine the first time since it runs an autodetection routine that works wuite well. Plus you can rerun it to tweak the existing setup.
Give it a try, perhaps it will help. If nothing else, it configures everything with better defaults.
The only other gem I have found is using the winealsa.drv instead of the default wineoss.drv in the .wine/config file [WinMM] section. But then, thats for audio. Didn't solve my stuttering audio problems completely, but at least I now _get_ stuttering audio.
Good luck,
Regards,
Ant.
