Xwine.dsl, the xwine.dsl package. Options

I understand your frustration but please don't flood the board...

(cant configure from winelauncher(says cant find wineconfig or a file it needs(i made a blank doc called wineconfig and stuff got wrote into it so im not sure what its looking for) and dont know how to configure it any other way)

In my last post i told you not to use winelauncher (DON"T USE IT! ;-) )

second did you close everything after install starcraft? IE stracraft update and stuff..

third and very important do you have a swap file? If no then it will not work.. You'll need to make at least a 128 mb swap file for it to work properly

sorry about the flooding, just really want this to work.

i have to go back to work but i will try this later, im guessing though that the swap file is made the same way the loop back is made through the right click menu>apps>etc..

if im wrong let me know so i dont go screwing something up lol, and just out of curiosity what is it that a swap file does? does it make fake virtual memory or something??

and will the insert cd popup go away after this is done also??

thanks for your help keo-keo, u seem to be the only one in this forum that knows anything about this

ok i made the swap file and redid the installation up to the point of doing wine install.exe
where the play starcraft window came up, so then i tried to run bwloader.exe and in bas i still get the err:virtual mem crap but starcraft doesnt, it comes up with another similar window saying that i need to switch video modes to 640x480 and color pallete to 256 colors.... arent tv's by default 640x480? i dont have hi def or anything maybe theres something i didnt do?..

well the insert cd window didnt come up but im not sure it ever got that far this time so help stil with that to!

You might be running in 800x600.. i wish i had more time to help fix this issues (hell i havn't turned on the xbox in a week) I'm prepareing for my trip and time is getting shorter and shorter.. Perhaps i could create a intensive step by step procedure on getting SC working.. This includes the loopback to the swap to video and installing wine.. I'll look in to this futher when i get back.. Expect somthing closer to the end of the month or early september..

Unfortually i will be soon i will be unable to contrube as much as i must return to school. I will be taking 18 credit hours and working a full time job.. (as well as playing father) I wanna say i love the scene and i will try to check in from time to time to offer as much help as i can as well as work on developemnt on XDSL. I figured now would be the best time to tell the community.. I ask the community to still support XDSL this includes adding to the wiki http://x-dsl.org and joining our newly formed mailing list. http://groups-beta.google.com/group/XDSL-Linux?lnk=oa . School will not start for me until september 21st.

[mod_n00b]

[enliteneer]

Thanks!

[Gibn101]

does anyone know how to edit a lnk on the x-dsl desktop and have it work. i edited one for xwine and it does nothing. i have checked the link over and over. i dunno whats the problem

[4real*leb]

When i type in mydsl-load xwine.dsl or mydsl-load (location of file) it comes upo with a error message saying "Please mount media containing opt dir the try again" why is it saying this, i know it is not doing this just becauseof xwine because when i try to download uci files it says the same thing. Whats going on?
