Ubuntu :: Run A Couple Of Games Through Wine?

Oct 18, 2010

i recently decided to try and run a couple of games through wine, however trying to install two of them through wine, after putting in the second cd in the installer, the system will not recognise/mount the cd at all in the filesystem. it will instantly recognise the cd after i quit the installer for both of the games, so i guess that running the wine setup is interfering with ubuntu's ability to read or mount a cd. since it has happened on two separate occasions and has worked on windows, there must be something happening on my system that is preventing it. so my question is has anybody else experienced this or think that they know what might be causing the problems?

Ubuntu :: 10.10 - Sound While Playing Games Under WINE

Nov 1, 2010

I am having sound issues while playing some games under WINE. for this I will use World of Warcraft as it has options for different sound engines. The problem is that I will have sound running fine for a while after a fresh reboot. It will seem fine for a good half hour to an hour and then suddenly it will stop. It will still be present in the applications list in sound preferences listed as 'ALSA plug-in [wine-preloader]'. muting/unmuting and adjusting the slider has no effects. Enabling and disabling sound in the game also has no effects. Here is what I have tried thus far to try to remedy it:

tried all of the various sound options in winecfg (some simply don't produce any sound at all on a fresh reboot - OSS, for instance) tried with and without padsp tried the various sound engines in Config.wtf tried WINE from the Ubuntu repositories and the developer's PPA tried lowering the sample rate and the bits per sample in the audio tab of winecfg tried fiddling with the sound preferences applications controls I am not adventurous enough to try to install OSSv4 so that doesn't seem like an option for me. it is important to note that sounds not coming from WINE function as normal even while WINE is producing no sounds.

Ubuntu :: Nvidia Or ATI When Using Compiz/Games In Wine?

Jul 15, 2011

I'll be honest, I haven't searched around for this, so I apologize off the bat. I'm just curious - when I last had Ubuntu installed as a primary OS I could get Compiz working, but no games because I was using an ATI card. At the time, the overall impression was that everyone should be using Nvidia cards. ATI had issues with compositing that made it impossible to do desktop 3d plus compositing.

Now, I seem to be getting the opposite impression. Nvidia appears to be super locked down with less than great performance. So is my impression right? Which vendor is a better choice for a home desktop built for linux? I will be using Wine to play games, and I want to use compiz fusion for eye candy.

Ubuntu :: Most Objects In Games Play Under Wine Are Black

Jul 4, 2011

I use playonlinux to install the games, so I don't install them manually.Also I think it might have something to do with the graphics settings I did when it told me to install a version of Wine to make the game work. I have no idea how many gigabyte or megabyte my graphics card is so I selected the highest number.

Debian Multimedia :: Run Games Via Wine - Borked VLC

i've been experimenting with trying to run games via wine (i don't have windows to do a dual boot with), and i just recently tried to open up a dvd in vlc, and... trouble. it works, but now the player "squishes" the widescreen image into a traditional "tv screen" box. even when do it in fullscreen, it just fills the screen with black and plops the "squished" image in the middle of it. i've watched downloaded mp4 images i got off videos like this, and they look fine, but they're not widescreen images. i'm sure there's something really simple somewhere i gotta fix

im planning to migrate from windows to OpenSUSE. One thing i cant leave from windows is, its support for high end games. I did some research, we can use Wine application in Linux. Im wondering, if i install a game (for example) FIFA 11, will it run smoothly like i run it on Windows 7? Does it depend on our hardware (graphic card, processor, memory)?

General :: How To Disable Other Monitors While Running Games In Wine

Feb 24, 2011

My current setup is:
* Dual GTS 250 video cards
* 3 Monitors
* Used nvidia-settings to run each monitor as a separate x session
* This is all running on Linux Mint Debian Edition

When running games (Starcraft II) in Wine via PlayOnLinux, I've found that the mouse does not get locked. I already tried various solutions littered across the web and none work so I'd rather just disable my other two monitors while playing. Does anyone know of a method where I can turn off my other two monitors (not my primary monitor) while running Wine and then turn then back on afterwards? I don't mind having to manually run a script before and after gaming.

This is the output of my xrandr for each of my monitors (I get a different xrandr depending on which X session (i.e. monitor) I try xrandr on):
Primary Monitor
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 175, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 1920 x 1080
default connected 1920x1080+0+0 0mm x 0mm .....

Second Monitor
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 1: minimum 320 x 240, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm .....

Third Monitor
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 2: minimum 320 x 175, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm .....

I could not figure out from the above outputs what I should be using for the --output flag. I assumed it was default and tried the following:
~ $ xrandr --output default --off
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
But as you can see, it didn't work. Additionally, since all three xrandr outputs list the monitor as default, I wouldn't know how to turn my other monitors back on afterwards (if the command did work). Do you know what might be wrong in my nvidia-settings or what else I could try?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Make Games In Wine Not Stretch In Non-native Resolution?

Feb 6, 2010

I'm running WoW in Ubuntu 9.10 with wine. My screen's native resolution is 1920x1200. When I play WoW in Windows I set it to 1920x1080 in fullscreen because that aspect ratio allows me to see more of the playing field. In windows it doesn't stretch the screen so I have a black bar at the top and bottom of my screen.

When I set it to 1920x1080 under wine, it stretches my screen. Is there any way I can make it not stretch?

I tried searching forums/google but I couldn't find anything related to my question.

Ubuntu :: Wine's "Emulate A Virtual Desktop" On Native Games?

Jun 15, 2010

I run Ubuntu with two screens. When I'm playing a Windows game through WINE, I enable "Emulate a virtual desktop" for that game and set the desktop size to that of one monitor. With this setup, I can Alt-Tab and switch between Compiz desktops while still running the game in full screen. However, I also play some native games (Sauerbraten and Tremulous in particular). To play them full screen, I have to disable one monitor, as it's hard to hit your target when they're split across two monitors. I also cannot reliably use Alt-Tab and desktop switching when a native game is in full screen mode. Is there an program that can "wrap" full screen native applications in a window of a set size like WINE's virtual desktop does for Windows applications?

Ubuntu :: Corrupted EXT3 File System?

Feb 9, 2011

I am using Ubuntu since release 8.10, but it is first time when i can`t solve problem

when i tried to create new NTFS partition on unallocated disk space with Paragon Partition Manager (damn, that was stupid). Process was aborted with error (later i finally made it with Gparted without problems)

After reboot mine Ubuntu say:

Code:
Errors were found while checking the disk drive for /

Press F to attempt to fix errors, I to ignore, S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery. I pressed "F" but that had help only for a boot and doesn`t really fix error :`(

Later i booted from liveCD and had checked partition (/dev/sdb1; file system - ext3) with gparted (result - aborted fixing process with error) Now i can`t even boot from that partition and even mount it from other linux system.

mine fdisk -l
Code:
/dev/sdb1 * 1 5957 47849568 83 Linux - problematic partition (unmountable)
/dev/sdb2 5958 29983 192988845 7 HPFS/NTFS

[Code]....

PhotoRec recover most of my files, but i need complete partition.

Ubuntu Installation :: Cannot Delete The (corrupted) File

May 18, 2011

Problem: Cannot delete file

System: Ubuntu 11.04 with KDE desktop

Symptoms: When I try to start Synaptic, I get

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

Running the requested command in terminal, I get

dpkg: error: failed to open package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0001' for reading: No such file or directory
ubuntu@ubuntu:/var/lib/dpkg/updates$ ls -l

[code]...

Also tried to move, copy and rename the file and also to delete the updates folder with rmdir. Also tried rm -i * but it seems there is only the one file in the folder. The only strange result is the "total 4" when I run the ls -l command:

Hardware :: Got 'file Kbdclass.sys Is Corrupted

Had a lot of computer trouble recently and had to have my hard drive wiped and Windows re-installed by a repair shop. They put in the Home Edition of XP.

Now I immediately want to install Linux again. However, when I try to load the Mint live cd I get the above information.

When I try to load the PclinuxOS live cd I get 'log in Local Host' and I don't know where to go from there.

When I try to load the Suse live cd I get nothing.

At the start of my troubles I got 'file kbdclass.sys is corrupted'. This hasn't returned.

Hardware :: Help With Testdisk And A Corrupted File System

Aug 1, 2010

I think that my external hard drive was either "unsafely removed" or powered off at a critical moment because when I tried to connect it to any OS Mac, Windows Ubuntu etc. It could not be read. I forget the Windows error message but the Ubuntu one was "mount error 2".In any case I downloaded testdisk asked it to analyze my hd and about half way through it said that the number of heads per cylinder were 128 and it more than likely should be 255 (or the other way around I forget which but I know the numbers are right). So I went and changed the geometry of the external HD such that the number is what testdisk told me was and the result is that my computers can read it but it seems that all the files are missing.

I used photorec and I have recovered all the files (unnamed and disorganized of course)So this leads me to the following question: is there any way I can repair my file system or access the files so that I don't have to go through the 16,000+ files rename and reorganize them again?

Ubuntu :: Games Do Not Work - Exe File Encountered Error

Aug 8, 2010

When I first got Ubuntu a few weeks ago, and got the older version of Wine from the Software Center, and it could run pretty much any game I wanted. Albeit really slowly. Well, I upgraded to 1.2 using the instructions on the wine website, and now a couple of my low-power games (like Bootfighter Windom XP) run totally perfectly, but a lot of mainstream games like Mirror's Edge and Mass Effect 2 just crash when I attempt to open them, and all they all have the same message where the main .exe file has "encountered a serious error." Here's what the terminal gives me:

Code:
Backtrace:

Ubuntu :: File System For External Drives - Won't Get Corrupted When The Power Fails

Aug 10, 2010

I'm going to reformat my external drives to get rid of the crud that I've built up. (Crud being incremental backups, windows software, and similar things.)(I also want to get rid of the FAT32 file system that they use.) These are USB 1TB drives. The theory is that data is written to it once, but read back a number of times. (I also burn that data to DVD. If there was software that could organize 5TB of data on DVDs, I'd be using them.)

I"m trying to decide whether to use ReiserFS, Ext4, or another file system. Basically, I want something that:

* Won't get corrupted when the power fails;
* Can handle files that are 4+GB in size;
* Uses extends --- preferably without user intervention;

Server :: Takes Time To Release File Handles - Get Corrupted - Deleted Too

Aug 26, 2010

The app in linux server(CentOS 5.3) uses files from a mount directory(Shared windows directory in read only mode). At the same time, the same file might be edited by user in windows env. We were assuming that as the windows folders are mounted in read-only mode in linux so any change done by user in windows environment would be fail safe i.e. can be safely committed to the file. But when the file concurrently used both by Linux and as well by windows, at some point linux does not release the file handles and the files get corrupted(deleted too). Earlier we were using win2k server and this step was hardly reproducible and win2k was releasing file handles quickly. But with centos, we really had touch time managing files.
