Running Surfulater

[Kay]

Hi,

I installed Surfulater in a Wineskin wrapper (version 2.5.5, engine WS9Wine1.5.9).
At first I got an error about gdiplus.dll missing, but I installed the missing dll and it seems to have solved *that* problem.
Now I can get Surfulater to run, but its dropdown menu becomes blank upon hover, and I'm getting the following error:

Module: .\FMNviewCSS.cpp, Line:882
Msg:Unknown error 0X80004001
(null)

Do you have an idea how to I could fix this?

Thanks!
Kay

Sorry, we do not provide support for third-party wrappers. Please retest with plain Wine without any wrapper if you want to get help here. Make sure to use recent Wine version like 1.5.9 or 1.5.10.

OK, thank you.

OK, thank you.

if you use a Wineskin wrapper with a normal engine (like WS9Wine1.5.10 <--- nothing after the Wine1.5.10 part) there is a Command Line Test option in Wineskin.app, which will launch Terminal and let you run Wine normally. Remember that this is normal Wine usage so its all command line and your wineprefix is ~/.wine and it needs the latest version of XQuartz installed... all just like you compiled Wine yourself, it lets you skip the step of having to get it compiled.

Thank you. I'll look it up - installing XQuartz and using command line.
