Problems with running QuickPlan 5 by NavBox

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I'm new to Wine, but have just succeeded in installing it on my Debian Sarge system via the deb package mentioned at http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb

QuickPlan 5 is a flight planning software by http://www.navbox.nl that comes on a CD with only two files, the AUTORUN.INF and the Setup.exe. I ran the Setup.exe with wine as documented, and the so started installation seemed to complete sucessfully, too.

When I now run the installed program, its initial dialog appears that asks for the registration number on the first program start.

Unfortunately, the dialog is missing most of the text that is supposed to be there. Under MS Windows 2000, I see that multiple fonts are used for that dialog text, and it seems that the bulk of the text is using a font that is not displayed at all when run under wine.

Even worse, the widgets of the dialog do not function at all: Typing the serial number into the specified field gives no visible feedback at all (no cursor, no digits, etc.), and clicking either the OK or Cancel buttons does not have any effect at all, either!
(That means that I have to kill the app manually each time to quit it.)

The obvious question is of course: what can I do?
Is there any specific problem or issue known that exhibits problems like those I mentioned above? Any place in the wine config that might be related that I should re-check?

I'd be very grateful for any help or any pointer to help.
Thank you very much in advance!

(PS: I got a copy of QuickPlan from the manufacturer for the sole purpose of testing it with Wine. If it is of any help to provide you with the Setup.exe file (it's only 24 MB) large for testing, I'll ask them for permission to place it somewhere for download.)

Best regards,
Carsten
