How do I fix the 'fixme's

Post by trapspringer »

I am trying to install Fallout 1 using wine. When I try to install it I type in:
...$wine _setup.exe
the _setup.exe is to go into the windows installation. When the window pops up it says
that C: drive only has 216 mb
and that the Z: has 170 mb
I should be having 7 to 15 gigs on each of those drives.

I click on exit and the bash shell has 3 fix me errors:
fixme:d3d_caps:init_driver_info Unhandled vendor 8086.
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32ef00,0x00000000), stub!
fixme:dinput:SysMouseAImpl_Acquire Clipping cursor to (0,0)-(640,480)


I tried installing using:
...$wine install.exe
But that gives me an error message:
Not enough memory on exec
If I try clicking on the install file through the window instead of going through the terminal, a terminal window pops up briefly then disappears and does nothing.

How can i fix this?

Become a Wine developer and write the code that implements these features!

Fixme's are for code that is missing to implement functions that exist
in the Win32/Win64 APIs that are partially implemented and need further
work to become fully implemented.

The other problems should be reported, as you have.

Several questions come to mind though:

What is the version/distribution of Linux you are using?
How much memory is available on your system?
What video card are you using?

And which drivers you use, kernel (think "uname -a")

Thank you for pointing that out, Frédéric.

What is the command, in Linux for getting the Video Driver type and
version. This would be a great addition to the first time bug report
submision.

I thing glxinfo may help (+ sthg like "Hardware Drivers" on Ubuntu;
maybe easier for non technical users)

I had the exact same problem. This seems to be an issue with older programs having difficulty recognizing (relatively) large disks. I configured Wine to run as Window 98 and the installation program ran fine, as did the game itself. The FAQ addresses this issue, which is not so much a bug in Wine as a shortcoming of older versions of Windows and the programs which ran on them. [/url]
