Hi, I started using Wine (v. 20020804, compiled from tarball using /tools/wineinstall) only a few days ago, and right now I'm trying to use simple programs such as mIRC or WinMX 3.22. I read FranksWorld.net's guide on how to make the latter work with Windows 9x dll's, and it worked like a charm. For all those interested, you can find it here: http://franksworld.net/wine/modules.php?op=modload&name=Sections&file=index&req=viewarticle&artid=113&page=1 Next, I tried to have Wine use dll's I copied from my Windows XP installation (if I can use those, I won't have to bother my win98 friends with dll requests anymore :) )... Well, it was a disaster! The shell instance I run wine from gets into some sort of loop and fills with dll-related error messages... I copied all dll's described as "probably working" or better on WineHQ.org to their respective fake Wine directories: those from \system into /system, and \system32 dll's into /system32. I added this last path to Wine config using "System32" = "C:\\Windows\\System32". Then, I set all dll's override to "native, builtin" in the [Override] section. I then tried to have Wine emulate WinXP by default, but I couldn't find the config value anymore... And the command line argument has disappeared, either... Only after some time did I notice that Frank's World suggests you use Win 9x dll's at all times... So my question is: does anyone know if my Wine version (20020804) only supports 9x ovverride? I'm asking here because I couldn't find that kind of info on the site... And in case it supports Win 2K/XP, what did I do wrong? Thanks a lot for the info, Marco _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
