I just tried installine WineX on my 9.1 box last night for the 3rd time. Was following the instructions on
http://www.geocities.com/desktopmandrake/wine.htm Unfotunately I kept getting the "no socket file" error every time I tried to start it. A quick google search showed that typing "wineserver" before launching wine might help. Sure enough it did. However it wasn't with problems... Starcraft locked up in Battle net after I joined a game and started to download a map. Counter-Strike (Retail) locked up after the main screen came up. A couple questions for ya all: Have any of you had lockups with WineX like I did? If so, how did u resolve them? How is the purchased RPM on Mandrake 9.1? I thought I remember hearing that the compiled version was best for Mandrake 9.1? Any other input about Wine/WineX on Mandrake 9.1 appreciated ! =) -----Original Message----- From: Jim C [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 12:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] Wanted to try wine I've never run a windows emulator before and I wanted to see if I could get some Blizzard (StarCraft, WarCraft etc...) games to run under Mandrake 9.1 What I discovered is that 9.1 comes with only 1 emulator (that I've found so far) and it is a freakin Alpha. We were not amused. So. What is the best way to do this? -- ------------ Jim C. ---------- Jim C. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
