Hello everybody,
I'm new to wine and tried to run the adventure "So Blonde". The installation ends successfully and the game should run under wine (
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... ngId=33866 ).
But when I try to start the game, it says that there is no DVD in the drive and I have to put the original DVD in it (I have the original game...). When I look into the "winecfg" my CD ROM is as "D:" detected.
With winedbg I got this message:
WineDbg starting on pid 001c
0x7b878bd3: movl %edi,0x0(%esp)
Wine-dbg>fixme:ntoskrnl:IoGetDeviceObjectPointer stub: L"\\DosDevices\\D:" 80 0x114938 0x11493c

I am using Ubuntu 8.1 with wine 1.1.11.
Thanks a lot.

Looks like some copy-protection driver tries to do something that's not implemented in Wine.
The only thing you can do in this case is to use "no-cd" patch for your game.

You are right. With the no cd crack it works. Thanks a lot.
