Description Bernardo S. A. Silva 2002-08-17 15:54:22 UTC
Hi... 

 I am using the WineX ebuild 20020807 and it is really GREAT! It works perfectly
and the /usr/bin/winex script is a very clever solution.
 I had only a few comments:
 
1) If you add this lines on the example ~/.winex/config file it will prevent a
lot of little bugs:
 [Drive H]
 "Path" = "/usr/lib/winex/bin"
 "Type" = "hd"
 "Label" = "WineX"
 "Filesystem" = "win95"

2) A lot of games that works on WineX v1.03 doesn't work on the 2.1 version
(ex:Balurs Gate). I will be very HAPPY if you create a winex1.ebuild that can
exists together with WineX v2.1.

3) It is very useful and improves the speed of the emulation add the file
/etc/env.d/81winex with the line LDPATH=/usr/lib/winex/lib

   Thanx a lot... Bernardo Silva
Comment 1 Bernardo S. A. Silva 2002-08-29 10:25:18 UTC
Hey... it is a very good Idea to UPdate the WineX with the working CVS version 
of QUARTZ, to let the game-cinematics runs...

winex-cvs is also available in portage.
Please test it and let me know how it works for you.

I will look at the config file for winex and possibly add this to it.

I'll post on this report when I get to it this week.

Changes have been made to the configuration files for correct setting of PATH,
LDPATH, and ROOTPATH and I added your drive H configuration to the default
config file.  The updated files should be in portage within 24 hours.

We should still be able to get a winex version 1 build into portage but not
until after our portage tree freeze is over.  When I get the first build into
portage I will leave another note on this bug report.

Report winex-cvs bugs/features to bug 7319 please. Just in case you need
winex-1.0 right now, edit the winex-cvs ebuild and change the branch to the old
version.

btw raker,
i modified your wine ebuild - it goes to the new location (/usr/lib/wine) now.
We should be fully fhs compliant. YAY!
