Further investigation revealed that the latest version of Wine that works with Myst-ME is 0.9.48. It leaves a lot to be desired. 1) Myst seems to work only if the window manager is allowed to control the windows. Upon startup, though, it looks as if the window is unmanaged. In particular, the entire top part of the screen is taken over by a menu bar generated by Myst, even though the Myst "window" is only a quarter of the screen. 2) After the introduction video finishes, the game is begun by opening the book shown and touching the picture. At this point the audio repeats the last quarter second. It grabs the mouse and refuses to let go even though this option is not checked. Control can be grabbed back by doing ctrl-alt-backspace, which forces gdm to reset. Slightly related to these, I found a more general problem which is still present in .51. If you start winecfg and set it to emulate a virtual desktop of say, 800x600, you cannot sucessfully use winecfg after that because the buttons on the bottom are more than 800 pixels away from the top. The top cannot be moved up nor can the window be resized. It's not clear to me how to turn off the virtual desktop behavior without using winecfg or wiping out $HOME/.wine/. -- David Griffith dgriffi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text.
