Hi,
I've had WineX3.x.x [rpm] installed on my previous RH9 system, but after I messed up the system I couldn't back it up. I've donwloaded some WineX3.x.x RPM's [i586] , but I have problems running them, either they won't start at all...or no game will run at all....[like warcraft 3 played perfectly with WineX3.x.x] Now I've decieded on downloading the source files from www.transgaming.com , go them : and installed them like it was told to.... goto source dir of WineX and type ./tools/wineinstall but after the installation is done, at the part where it's trying to do that registry thingie... Preparing to install default Wine registry entries... Installing default Wine registry entries... wine: chdir to /root/.wine/wineserver-demon : No such file or directory Registry install failed. [root@demon winex]# this is the error I get, anyone installed winex from source ? , what am I doing wrong here? Sincererly Robert B ps.: was installing as root -------------------- Robert Becskei

@robert83 and termina
I don't normally install progams like Wine, WineX and CrossOver office or CrossOver plugin ... because it does things like: 1. Makes your Linux Machine vulnerable to Windows 32 Viruses ... especially if you use outlook, outlook express or IE6. 2. The games don't run as stably on Linux as they do on WinXP ... so I just run all my Windows Games on WinXP. Since you are both having problems, it might have something to do with the XFree DRM manager to make the ATI card work. Since I like you guys duende likes games on linux and I think he is a Winex guy too ... maybe he has some insight on this one! -------------------- Johnny Hughes

Hi,
thanx, you know It's not actualy about playing games on Linux, it's about that I can't live with the knowledge that I succeded once, and now I can't...you know how it is...it's killing me, and by the way the only thing I managed to get playing absolutely good [in game , movies a bit choppy] was Warcraft3. Sincerely Robert B ps.:I've found a cool script , wich looks like the anaconda installer [some console special edition], that is downloading and installing winex for me right now, if It succeds on Fedora Core 1 I will post it here. -------------------- Robert Becskei

I think your audio driver doesn't support 48000 ... if you can get warcraft to run ... go into the multimedia options and see if you can reduce the sound quality (frequency) to a level that is listed (44100 for example).

Robert .. I editied your post to put the script inside a code box ... the http://xxx.xxx.xxx/ stuff was truncating and not showing the entire link ....
I tested the script after I finshed the edit and it installed WineX CVS on my machine... -------------------- Johnny Hughes

For people who want to use the above script:
You must have the XFree86-devel tools installed: -------------- for RedHat / Fedora use: yum install XFree86-devel or apt-get install XFree86-devel or up2date XFree86-devel ------------- I will try to install this on Slackware 9.1, Mandrake 9.2 and 10.0, Debian Sarge/SID and Gentoo. I'll post the results to this thread as I get them complete. -------------------- Johnny Hughes

OK, on to Slackware 9.1 (Actually my Slackware is slackware-current ... kind of like Debian Sarge. I did a full install of Slackware 9.1 and I use swaret to keep it updated to Slackware-current. So it has some slightly newer packages than the updated Slackware 9.1 install).
The name of the package you have to install for Slackware 9.1 (if it is not already installed) is xfree86-devel-4.3.0-i486-3.tgz Anyway ... just like in FedoraCore1, I copied and pasted the above posted script ... and I named it install_winex and saved the file ... then I made it executable with the command; chmod 755 install_winex then I ran it like this: ./install_winex Accept the default paths ... use cvs for the password ... everything started OK and finished OK in Slackware. -------------------- Johnny Hughes

On to Mandrake 9.2 ... the package that needs to be installed to allow the the above script to run and compile is:
libxfree86-devel You can install it via the comamnd: urpmi libxfree86-devel The process completed with no errors. -------------------- Johnny Hughes
