Should be system time or the files that you downloaded has a funny date/time stamp.

Now wine work but I want to play baldur's gate 2 on my xbox.When I try to execute setup,nothing happen except some writing on the terminal and it then freeze(i think).So I tried to make the full install on my computer and then crack it and then ftp it to one of my xbox directories,but when I execute baldur.exe it work but I cant play it as I only have the install option,no play option(i think its a directory problem),but could someone help me out plz

Hi,

Its a little work-around on setting up wine correctly.. it needs the program files folder setup defined in the config file and stuff. once all thats find, it will install ok. I had to work with it couple of times before I could install starcraft but its been a while since I did that..

Do a search on starcraft on both shallax and gentoo forums and you should get some clues...

hth

Thank you,but plz understand that I am new to the linux world.I did the search but all ive found is really complicate tutorial that I understand nothing of it.Could someone give me a link to a simple tutorial that everyone could understand.Thank you

Hi,

You would have to check your config file for wine..

Try to look at this link
http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wfs ... ticleid=45

You dont have to follow all of it, just the place where it says config.. c_drive and stuff.. Just check whether your config file has it and that those folders are created under dosfiles..

also easier way to debug, use a computer, vnc into xbox and run it from that session.

thx,ive manage to install starcraft but the screen is too big for my tv,I would like to know if theres a command to execute the screen in a smaller window,thx again

hi,

yes I think I remember doing that search a long time ago. There is some setting you can put in the config file for making it a window screen kinda thing..... hope you can find it again...

I think I found it on gentoo.. when I searched for starcraft..

Jeremus i'm hijacking this thread for a quick question.... How long did it take you to emerge wine? My brother tried that out yesterday and the xbox ran that command for hours... I tried it just recently, and it's been going for 30 minutes. I'm a linux noob, so i have no idea how long these "emerge processes" usually takes... But hours for compiling an application seems, farfetched from my side.. So i'm wondering if we've messed up something on our side.

cheers, hope anyone can give me some... enlightment.

wine can normally take upto 4 hours.

thanks for the answer, well atleast then i know that things are fine on my side... so far ))))))))))
