Problems getting workaround for Fallout bug #6033

adamjohnston · Post by **adamjohnston** » Thu Jun 25, 2009 5:08 am

I can't get workaround for Fallout mouse problem working as mentioned on: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6033

I created a key at [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DirectInput]
named MouseWarpOverride with the value 'disable'

This had no effect.

Can anyone give me any ideas as to what I may need to do?

Wine version?

wine version 1.1.19 from Ubuntu repository.

Should still work. Are you using separate WINEPREFIX by any chance?

Try something like this in terminal:

xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- :1 -ac -depth 16 (works with GeForce - if not try
24)
This will start separate X session with empty xterm - now run Fallout inside
this new session.
If you get "Permission denied" it means you have to change
"allowed_users=console" to "allowed_users=anybody" in:

/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config
xinit --

Or run this before you run 'xinit'::

Code: Select all

xhost +

PS You need to run it only once.

If you have not setup IPTables to block X access or you do not use
Xauthority, this can create a serious security problem.

I would still like some help getting the RegEdit fix to work with Fallout. If anyone has successfully used this workaround could you please let me know how you did it.

Thanks
