Many people have discussed the problems with Rosetta Stone, in particular the failure to detect the cdrom with the "Language Pack". I am having the same problem, but none of the described solutions work for me. I think that my dosdevices are configured correctly: niemand@dell dosdevices $ ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 niemand users 10 2007-09-07 11:59 c: -> ../drive_c lrwxrwxrwx 1 niemand users 10 2008-05-18 06:37 d: -> /mnt/cdrom lrwxrwxrwx 1 niemand users 14 2008-05-18 06:33 h: -> /home/niemand If I put the application CD in the drive, mount it at /mnt/cdrom, and do "wine Rosetta Stone.exe" (already installed from the application CD), then it pops up a message "Please insert the correct CD-ROM, press OK, and restart the application." And here's what I get in the terminal: niemand@dell RS2.2.0.0A $ wine Rosetta\ Stone.exe fixme:service:QueryServiceObjectSecurity 0x11f990 4 0x11fdc8 0 0x32ef30 - semi-stub fixme:service:QueryServiceObjectSecurity 0x11f990 4 0x11fdc8 28 0x32ef30 - semi-stub fixme:advapi:SetEntriesInAclA 1 0x32eec0 0x11fddc 0x32ef2c fixme:service:SetServiceObjectSecurity 0x11f990 4 0x32eeac fixme:event:wait_for_withdrawn_state window 0x10022/1a00005 wait timed out fixme:event:wait_for_withdrawn_state window 0x1002a/1a00008 wait timed out fixme:event:wait_for_withdrawn_state window 0x10028/1800005 wait timed out Where to go from here? I would be extremely grateful for any suggestions or advice. -Hans
