DirectX must not be installed, so that is ok, when he asks, you must choose "no". I also have a black screen... When you run wine in windowed mode, can you see any error message? There can be one in fullscreen, but it doesn't show, but in windowed desktop mode you can see it, on my install i can see one! 2008/10/12 iam070 <wineforum-user@xxxxxxxxxx> > Pixel shaders and vertex shaders are enabled! > there are a few errors at the end of your installation, but not saying > access > violation at adress 00000000.. > > Code: > > > err:rpc:I_RpcReceive we got fault packet with status 0x80010108 > err:ole:dispatch_rpc no apartment found for ipid > {ffffffff-ffff-ffff-2600-000008000000} > err:rpc:I_RpcReceive we got fault packet with status 0x80010108 > err:ole:dispatch_rpc no apartment found for ipid > {ffffffff-ffff-ffff-2600-000008000000} > err:rpc:I_RpcReceive we got fault packet with status 0x80010108 > > > > > > And the appliation tell me"DirectX was unable to be installed > properly.Please re-install DirectX before running the game." > > > > i change wine-1.1.6 to wine-1.1.4,the link is here > > http://darkstar.ist.utl.pt/getdeb/ubuntu/hardy/wi/wine_1.1.4+3dmarkPatch-0~getdeb1_i386.deb<http://darkstar.ist.utl.pt/getdeb/ubuntu/hardy/wi/wine_1.1.4+3dmarkPatch-0%7Egetdeb1_i386.deb> > > the iw3mp.exe can run but the screen is black... > [Embarassed] > > > > > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
