Help with faq verbage

Post by jerlinux »

Can somebody tell me what this means?

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver]
"ClientSideWithRender"="N"

Place above in text file and it can be inserted into registry by
"regedit settings.txt".

It is the answer to "bad text in config screen" in the faq section.

Does this mean that there is a file someplace called software\wine\x11
driver?

Is regedit settings.txt a command and if so does it have to be run sudo?

I don't want to muck up anything if I don't have to.

Thanks

Copy

Code: Select all

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver]
"ClientSideWithRender"="N"
and paste it into a text editor. Save the file as settings.txt.

In a terminal, run the command

Code: Select all

regedit settings.txt
to insert the key into Wine's registry. (You may have to type in the full path to the file, depending on where you saved it.)

DO NOT DO ANY OF THIS AS SUDO.

Is there any way to see if I have done this correctly?

Did not get any errors when I followed the directions below but I did
not have any impact on wine.

Thanks again hate to be such a pest.
