Heh, the answer is no he didn't. Don't get that installer, it doesn't work.

They seem to have moved the CVS on us. The script (1st post) has been updated to reflect the new CVS location found on their homepage (http://www.transgaming.com)

EverytHing works till I get to...
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:cvs@cvs.transgaming.org:/cvsroot co winex
./tools/wineinstall

(Accept all defaults at the end of the installation, it errors with some registry problem, but we don't care since we're not going to run wine as root.)

i never get to accept anytHGing,it always gives me this instead, "./tools/wineinstall already pasted in, so I hit eter ad go on to the gentoox part of the tut, and it works till I get to the same part

"Yes, you already did this as root, do it again. This time answer '/home/gentoox/.wine/c_drive' when it asks you where to put C "1
bash: ./tools/wineinstall: No such file or directory


what gives, any ideas?...please

Good tutorial Sniper Fox, worked for me. I created the folders before I ran 'regapi' and :

Code: Select all

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:cvs@cvs.transgaming.org:/cvsroot co winex
cd /wine/winex
./tools/wineinstall
Details...I know you can't hold everybody's hand! :wink:
But you really helped me out, thanks very much!! :mrgreen:

I got this working but needed one additional step to stop the error:

fixme:ttydrv:TTYDRV_GetBitmapBits

By default wine starts in terminal mode, but you want graphics, so go to the .wine directory and edit the config file and change

GraphicsDriver = "ttydrv"

to

GraphicsDriver = "x11drv"

Anyone know how to get XRender working?
I can run calc, but when trying to play a game the screen is blank and I get errors

fixme:x11drv:X11DRV_DD_SetCurrentMode :stub

Hi, I've been following this Winex CVS install tutorial and I get errors abound. It seems that my permissions are denied when doing wineinstall as Gentoox user, then I ran the ./config file because it say that my config is old. Then I get no file or directory. Could someone give me a step in the right direction other than throwing out the xbox?

the wget link does not work. Just tried this..
Doesn't seem to work, I suppose I need that spacific version but the link seems bust. Installing this on a Mandrake PC. Gives a load of 0's and gibberish when I try the second link dcom

Yo. I have installed Red Hat 9 on my PC. Do I need to edit that script "gentoox_winex" to work as /home/bucko. I looked at it and it seems to use $HOME command, does this mean I dont have to change it? Hope I can run it in Red Hat on my PC

Ok so far so good, i've managed to install gentoox and run magic now i'm trying my hand at getting wine running. This is where i'm at

mkdir /wine
cd /wine
cvs -d:pserver:cvs@cvs.transgaming.org:/cvsroot login
(When prompted for the password enter "cvs" )
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:cvs@cvs.transgaming.org:/cvsroot co winex
./tools/wineinstall

I've made it this far and now it is asking me a question, "you are running as root, do you want a local config file -/.wine/config. created" yes/no

Do i?

Thanks

It probably says ~/.wine/config the ~ means the user directory, the user directory for root is /root
If you were logged in as gentoox the user directory ~ would be /home/gentoox
this is asking if you want a config file for root. You may as well say yes then you can copy this file to /home/gentoox and /etc/skel and you will be set up for gentoox and also for all future users.
If you keep an open mind, will your brain fall out?
