Anyone got any games working with Transgaming WineX after -> 8
I needed to create a new mount point of /dev/cdrom at /mnt/cdrom (its a limitation in winex, the position is hard coded). Other than that, works okish. Ewan On Mon, 2002-05-06 at 11:57, dids wrote:

Are you saying the mount point isn't determined by the configuration file $HOME/.wine/config, as for regular wine? Last time I tried wineX the configuration was identical with vanilla wine, has that changed? //Anders
It supports the cdrom configuration in config like normal wine, but the part which bypasses the games copy protection to allow it to play under linux is hardcoded to /dev/cdrom and /mnt/cdrom - a program which isnt copy protected using safedisc will play without those mount points.

What's wineX? Does it work where Wine doesn't, or what? At 19:15 05/06/2002 +0200, Anders Johansson wrote:

WineX is supposed to be a taylored version of wine that has better DirectX and Windows api implimentation for gaming. I have had mixed results with it. It did seem to be more gaming specific, but if the wine projects keeps going the way it is I feel the WineX will become all but obsolete since the original wine will fulfill all that WineX does.

No, I'ts the layout of 8.0 and WineX combined I would think. I keep getting a "can't open shared resource" error. After reading Ewan's post about symlink pointing to /mnt/cdrom verses the default might explain it. My prob with transgaming is it's subscription and support is lukewarm at best. And add to the fact that I tried it for the 3 month trial and thought I would let it die. Instead I see a charge for the next quarter, maybe I need to go through a cancellation routine at transgaming, if not (hmmmm) then it's stop payments at my bank?

Send them, by snailmail, a very strongly worded cancellation notice. Make sure you keep a copy. Almost every operation that lets you "try before you buy" has some kind of built-in continuation mechanism. You are probably stuck with the next quarter's payments, but you should certainly not have any after that. If you can prove that the trial agreement has no automatic follow-up, you should stop payments, but you may be in for financial hardships. I'm not a lawyer, but I read. I also have a problem with Computer Shopper, which claims that I agreed to automatic renewal. I have threatened to take their next bill to the District Attorney as a scam, which it is, and we'll see wbhat happens. At 06:38 05/06/2002 -0500, Curtis Rey wrote: through payments

Negative. If you read the fine print in the subscription agreement, it clearly says that after you set up automatic payments via worldpay that any billing from that point is strictly between you and worldpay. Transgaming accepts no responsibility for stopping/changing payments from that point. If you completed the signup then you definitely clicked okay to this. You should have received an email from worldpay after completion with an account maintenance link. Using that link is the only way to stop your payments. On a side note, I plan to stop after this month too (my second). The comments about Transgaming's support is dead on. They suck! I've submitted support requests some of which were closed without resolution, and twice without even receiving a response from their support. I just received a polite email informing me that my ticket was closed by someone named wulfram. Although some of my issues were fixed using suggestions from other wineX users on the support forum, none of my issues have ever been fixed due to help from transgaming support. Did I mention they suck? I've gotten some good games to work and some programs that don't work with any other wine, but their operation is far from professional. I think I'll go with the cvs next time. I only joined to support their effort but until they get their act together I think I'll keep my money. JS
Hello all, Anyone know how to config SuSE Firewall on 8.0 to accept Vmware installed on the system? When I boot my system I get: Sep 16 19:03:36 XP19 kernel: SuSE-FW-UNAUTHORIZED-TARGET IN=vmnet1 OUT= MAC= SRC=192.168.10.1 DST=192.168.10.255 LEN=240 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=0 DF PROTO=UDP SPT=138 DPT=138 LEN=220 I get a million of these everytime I boot. What do I have to set to get the firewall to accept Vmware on Boot and not give me the error? Thanks in advance, Scott
