i use freebsd also and i have been having problems playing games. first of all nothing runs in fullscreen but that is not very important, i can manage without. my main problem is with the network. i tried HalfLife-Counterstrike, Broodwar and Zap the game released by the guys at opentnl.org. I wasn't able to connect to any network games in any of the games nor could others connect to the games i create. About your problem with starcraft scrolling around the hole desktop, maybe enabling dxgrab in the configuration file would do the trick. -------------------------------- Radu Molnar Babes-Bolyai Comunication Center -------------------------------- On Fri, 7 May 2004, eternal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > does anyone on the list have any input or advice on making > wine run on freebsd, or even bsd in general. i've been > batteling for the past 6 weeks, off and on, trying to get > any of the last 5 releases (including from cvs a week ago) > to either build from source, or run ANYTHING without error > after installing via /usr/ports/emulators/wine. tons of > fixme's and not implemented's. ie6setup.exe falls into a > timeout loop at 45% in the actual install, same for > dx8_eng.exe, but at 55%.the only thing i had any success > with was getting starcraft to install and play, but the 1.09 > patch hangs the x server during it's install, but if i ssh > on from another box, i can kill that pid from top. > afterwards, starcraft registers 1.05... the game doesnt > recognize keyboard input, and unless i set the desktop > resolution to 640x480, the game happily scrolls around the > whole desktop, not just the game. starcraft was a last > resort for testing my available windoze apps. it won't do > anything with anything else. please lend a hand... > > thanks, > shaun > > ps i have redirected the output of my make attempts to > logfiles, if anyone wants specific info, i got it for you > -=o) > _______________________________________________ > wine-users mailing list > wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx > http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users > _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
