[Now ns7] Dragon ns8 problem

[wino at piments.com]

It is possible that you are getting caught out by a modal dialogue that is  
not being brought to the top of the z-order : ie not comming to the front.

I wrote about this in one of my msgs earlier this year but you may have  
missed it since there was a lot of detail.

I found it best to drag the red Dragon Systems splash to one side once it  
appears. I was being caught out by a simple "OK" button that I could not  
see and I thought wine was locked up solid !

I hope that helps. Also check the mailing list archive or the appDB for  
which version I was running at the time. [Regression is a popular term on  
wine-dev ;)  ]


I think you can be pretty confident about getting v7 to install if you  
check back on earlier postings, there were a couple of silly hic-coughs  
but nothing too hairy.
