Linux Girlie: Try overriding 'msvcrt.dll' for Dreamweaver.exe with the native Windows version. I used to have that exact same problem until I did that. There does seem to be an unrelated regression in CVS affecting Dreamweaver sometime within the last few weeks. I 'm trying to move to Nvu, so I'm not exactly sure of the day it started. My regression testing to identify it is not going to well either (gurus, please see below). When I start Dreamweaver now, I get symptoms similar to those Jo described: the splash screen never goes away, but the app does come up in the background. The app is, however, unresponsive. I tried turning back the clock on my local source using 'cvs update -PAd -D "2005-8-01 CDT"', cleaning, making, installing, even rebooting, and retesting, but I got the same results. Maybe I'm using the wrong command or making a bad assumption that the CVS command would revert patches like I thought it would (it did appear to patch a lot of files). Coincidentally, I also tried Dreamweaver with a copy of the 11/5 CVS to which I had applied Oliver's DX8 patches, and that version works fine! I reversed the patches and retested and it was broken with the same symptoms. Now I'm kind of hoping that as his patches come in, it gets fixed as a side effect. :) -Jesse linuxgirlie wrote: >Hi, > >I hope this is the correct mailing list to send to. > >Basically I have just put in a full Linux computer suite in the school >I work at.
