Compiling/Running Wine 1.5.28 for Mac OS X using X11 driver

[mr jingle]

Is there any way to keep using the old X11 driver under Mac Os X? I've grabbed wine 1.5.28 from macports, and it seems that the "Virtual Desktop" feature isn't working anymore.

On winecfg there's no video driver selection panel and I've been unable to find any wine registry keys for it, so I have to assume I have to rebuild from sources. Is there any configure flag I should be aware of to re-enable it?

They just changed the default to Mac instead of X11... you can change it back.

in the registry under Current User->Software->Wine->Drivers add in a String called "Graphics" and set it equal to "mac" or "x11" depending if you want to use the mac or x11 driver.... if the entry is missing in 1.5.28+ it defaults to mac, where earlier versions defaulted to x11.

To do what doh123 said, it's easier to save the following into a text file named something.reg

Code: Select all

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers]
"Graphics"="x11"

And then run it in with the regedit with the WINEPREFIX you wish to set back to the X11 driver:

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=~/.your_wine_prefix wine regedit something.reg
