[PATCH FINALLY FIXED] tools/wineconf
this works perfectly on my system too added check for ntfs drives (in case it is drive c) NOTE: if you have read/write on for NTFS (in your kernel) i would not recommend using that as your c drive. thats why the wineinstall script says you should probably check the ~/.wine/config file anyways added check for cdroms mounted at /cdrom to be non-supermount (it got broken when i added the check for supermount cdroms) added supermount cdrom checking NOTE: if you have more than 1 cdrom, make sure you change the Device = line in ~/.wine.config for 1 of the cdroms as the script says both cdroms are /dev/cdrom __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [PATCH] ./tools/wineinstall *correct (.diff) format*
What actually happened is that $libdir was already in ld.so.conf, so the script did NOT add it, and therefore, it did NOT run ldconfig. This strategy works when one upgrades modules with identical names, but not when modules are renamed, as was the case with libntdll.dll.so replacing libntdll.so. The line in wineinstall which controls this behavior is: if [ -f /etc/ld.so.conf ] ! grep -qs $libdir /etc/ld.so.conf -- Chuck Crayne Ok, so now I'm wondering who set it up to not run ldconfig if $libdir is in there... I will fix that in a minute and submit the patch later today... __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Games - play chess, backgammon, pool and more http://games.yahoo.com/

The wineshelllink (the script responsible for installing the lnk files in the desktop menu) in the cvs wine assumes, that if you have a .kde directory in your home, then you have kde 1.x installed. And install kde 2.x files only if you have a .kde2 directory in your home folder. But on some systems (eg. RedHat), the kde config files are in .kde in home directory. That is the reason why the .desktop files are not installed on some systems. I have fixed wineshelllink in my cvs copy of wine, but never submitted it, because, I'm not really sure how to fix it to work on all the systems (I dont know how the other packagers do it). But if somebody needs, it I'm attaching the patch... Best regards Zsolt Rizsanyi hmm that has me wondering... i will take a look at that tonight as i will have more time then (just gonna run home to get my zip disk right now) and see what I can come up with in terms of having wineshelllink finding the correct version. we may need to remove the direcory checking stuff altogether... i have a couple ideas... 1) explicitly ask them for their kde version the first time wineshelllink is run (but then they would have to manually change the version number if they upgrade it) 2) always ask what the version # is... 3) read a file created by kde that has the version # in it (if one exists) 4) run some kde command with the --version arg and use it's output to get the kde version if possible 1 and 2 could be implemented directly in bash but then you have the problem of what if it doesn't get run in a terminal, so you could also have someone make a gtk/tk program that asks and is called from wineshelllink or you could do both and have 1 run if $display is set and the other one run if it isn't... just some thoughts... -Dustin __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [PATCH] ./tools/wineinstall *correct (.diff) format*
well something isn't right with the current wineinstall, because I installed wine to the default directories, and it wasn't finding libntdll.dll.so until after I added $libdir/wine. I'm not sure why that happened, I will do some checking tonight and find out why it wasn't finding the file. I'm thinking maybe it added $libdir to ld.so.conf but didnt run ldconfig... ?

But I have found a workaround... When the installation fails, the MSI installer is already copied to your windows directory (I think its name is installmsi.exe or something like that - I dont have it at hand). So I have tried to invoke it with the msi file in the root of the CD (the data1.msi or something like that - the other msi is something else). This way the installation started. The configuration of what programs to install worked perfectly, but when copying the files the installer broke, and said that it can't write a file. I dont know what was the problem. I had enough space, the persmissions were ok, and so on. I have tried again, and the installer broke again but now with a different file.
