Quoting: ShmerlDid anyone actually manage to test the new Wayland driver for anything simple?

I tried it, but it's not working:

debug=true DISPLAY='' WAYLAND_DISPLAY='wayland-0' wine regedit
...
009c:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
009c:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow L"The explorer process failed to start."
009c:err:systray:initialize_systray Could not create tray window
002c:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
002c:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow L"Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly."

Seems to still be missing the bits I mentioned here. I guess it won't be hooked up properly until everything has been merged.

I've been pretty promiscuous when it comes to audio subsystems. Over the years I've used OSS, ALSA, Jack, ESD, PulseAudio.

Maybe it's about time I got my tubes tied - my pipes wired?

Quoting: Purple Library GuyUhhh . . . I see. Of course. From now on I'll market Linux by being like you and claiming it totally sucks.

Well, I wouldn't recommend it, but negging does seem to work for some people.

Now you got lawn clippings all over the place, and have to clean up with PowerWash Simulator!

Quoting: gbudnyI hope that is a legal thing because I don't want to see it removed:

The source code was not leaked but published by Jim Dosé the co-founder of Ritual Entertainment. However it was not a FLOSS release. Every file carries this warning:

"This source is may not be distributed and/or modified without expressly written permission by Ritual Entertainment, Inc."

So legally pretty sketchy.

Quoting: neolithDoes this also work with the original SiN? I am asking because the SiN Gold versions are not sold by GOG or Steam here in Germany, but I think I still have the original game on CD somewhere...

From the FAQ: "The files from the original Windows CD also seem to work, but haven't been thoroughly tested" - So fingers crossed?

Edit: Looks like you need to manually convert the video files though.

Quoting: neolithI wonder what else this might fix. One of the problems I have with the original Gothic is that none of the videos play properly. And that game is from 2001...

Gothic uses Bink video so different problem I'm afraid.

Of course rock n roll can never die (there's more to the picture, than meets the eye!)

Game wishlisted!

Quoting: TimeFreezeJust my luck, bought a game a few hours ago which is now on sale with 74% off.

You can actually refund GOG games:

"You may request a refund for a product up to 30 days after purchase, even if it was downloaded, launched, and played."

Quoting: PlintslîchoUnfortunately, Days Gone isn't running well with regular wine (8.18). It's choppy and unplayable (AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT & Ryzen 3700X).

Regular Wine as in no fsync or esync patches?
