 Posted: Sat Mar 19, 2005 4:53 am Post subject: KOTOR and the mouse |
 |
|
Hey guys. My brother recently gave me Knights of the Old Republic as a gift (I know, older game, but it looks really cool). I refuse to use Windows, however, and am having to jump through a few hoops here. I downloaded the loki installer, grabbed the CDs and mounted them as required. Finally, by running kotor from the command prompt, I was rewarded with a few intro screens and then the main screen.
I do have a couple of problems:
Problem 1 is that when I move the mouse, the cursor snaps back to the center of the screen. Otherwise, the game seems responsive (I can click, click, click my way into a new game). Of course, an inop cursor renders the game relatively unplayable.
Problem 2 is no sound. Not sure what's going on here, but until Problem 1 is resolved, this one is a non-issue.
Anyway, my specs are:
xorg 6.8.0-r4
wine 20050211
My ~/.wine/config
| Code: | WINE REGISTRY Version 2
;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config
;;
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
;;
;; Each section has the following format:
;; [Drive X]
;; "Path"="xxx" (Unix path for drive root)
;; "Type"="xxx" (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and 'network')
;; "Label"="xxx" (drive label, at most 11 characters)
;; "Serial"="xxx" (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number)
;; "Filesystem"="xxx" (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat', 'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
;; This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain
;; directory structure.
;; Recommended:
;; - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32
;; - "msdos" for FAT16 (ugly, upgrading to VFAT driver strongly recommended)
;; DON'T use "unix" unless you intend to port programs using Winelib !
;; "Device"="/dev/xx" (only if you want to allow raw device access)

I'm the only one who has had this issue? 
Ok. At this point, I'm thinking that standard wine may not cut it. So, I'm attempting to install winexcvs as described here. Small problem: when I run ./tools/wineinstall from the new winex directory, I get the following error.
| Code: | Created /home/jgreen/.wine/config using default Wine configuration.
You probably want to review the file, though.
Compiling regapi...
rm -f regapi && ln -s ../../tools/winelibwrap regapi
Preparing to install default Wine registry entries...
Installing default Wine registry entries...
./tools/wineinstall: line 562: programs/regapi/regapi: Permission denied
Registry install failed. |
Does anyone have any experience installing winexcvs in this manner?

It's likely this bug: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1410
I submit bug links in Wine appdb for this game but if you know other games suffering from this issue
please submit bug links in Wine appdb.
patch for this bug is available in that link above. |
