Mine GO BOOM 02:40, Dec 21, 2005 (EST): Should we use Wine or wine? Also, PhOng, try using Preview. The less total changes in a row, the easier it is to cover changes without having to do fancy diff comparings.

submission to winehq?

Galeru: Is this patch submitted to wine? If it hasn't been, is there any intention of doing that?

Mine GO BOOM 20:30, Dec 22, 2005 (EST): If this was to be added to Wine, it would need to actually handle the permission flags. As right now, it is just a hack that may cause problems in other applications, but what is required to get Continuum to run.

i88gerbils: oliverthered posted on ssforum.net several months ago. It appears he is "in charge" of directx support for Wine. I sent him an e-mail linking him to this page. "Failed to deliver". Oh well.

Redistributable patched wine + Continuum package

--Bounty Punter 00:48, Jan 30, 2006 (EST) First of all, thank you for solving this problem!

I have made a package that I have tested in both Suse, and Slackware Linux. I works on both, provided that the user has wine already installed and configured with the general information in ~/.wine As Mine GO BOOM stated, the patched version of wine could cause problems in other applications running under wine. Does it, has anyone had any problems?

I am willing to provided limited hosting for the file if there is any interest, and pending any foreseeable legal problems with me doing it. It's rather large, 59.3 MB...
